Review! Creator Owned Heroes #1 (Image)

COVER: Phil Noto. Nice cover, feels like a magazine. Is this a magazine or an anthology? Good either
                                  way.
STORY: 'American Muscle' by Steve Niles. Looks like another " post-apocalyptic survivor" story.
                                                                          Is this the millionth comic with this premise? Well I did not
                                                                          get too much innovation in this story. Survivors, L.A. under
                                                                          water, "zombies", no real surprises yet...I will wait for part
                                                                          two.
                'Trigger Girl 6' by Jimmy Palmioti and Justin Gray. A sci-fi hot chick in a cool outfit that will
                                                                                                      kick your ass? A dead senator? Whats
                                                                                                      not to like?!
ART: 'American Muscle' by Kevin Mellon. This guys stuff is new to me. Not the best art I have seen.
                                                                         His line work doesn't match his colors very well. It all feels
                                                                         a bit...dirty. Maybe it is supposed to be that way.
           'Trigger Girl 6' by Phil Noto. Mr. Noto can draw. This is the gem of the book. Take away all the
                                                            dialogue from this story and it still works (maybe better). I'm reading
                                                            issue #2 just for this story.
* Throw in a few interviews, some behind the scenes stuff, pictures, cosplay, and plenty of ads and you have
   a good first issue.
FINAL FILE: Buy it, Read it, Bag it,...buy the next one!
