Of course, it's side-achingly funny. Sure, it's eye-lovingly illustrated. But is it just possibly the best send-up of superheroes yet created? In a word . . . duh ! Adam Warren's Empowered rattles the capes-and-tights cage in a manner well-deserved for said enclosure, but That's Not All, true believer. There is genuinely affecting emotion (Library Journal ). And it's for real, live adults (MTV Geek News ). In fact, Empowered is a fantastically rendered book on every conceivable level (Comic Book Resources ). Don't be a coward, get Empowered ! Collects Empowered volumes 1, 2, and 3.
Costumed crime fighter Empowered, already reeling from The Worst Book Proposal Ever, finds herself roped into a desperate scheme by her grief- stricken teammate, Sistah Spooky. Journeying from a terrifying alien arsenal to the even-more-terrifying depths of hell itself, can the mismatched superheroines free the soul of Spooky's lover from eternal damnation? Over 100,000 copies of Empowered volumes in print! Adam Warren continues to beat the odds and persists in getting better and better with his spicy superhero romp.—Johnny Bacardi, Popdose.com A sort of R-rated sitcom exploring geek culture from the inside out . . . It's full of exploitative, titillating imagery.—J. Caleb Mozzocco, Las Vegas Weekly
I expected a few things when i started Empowered, because i loosely remembered it being mentioned in a video i watched years ago. Things like bondage and some super heroics. I didn't expect a fucking trip down to hell to save the soul of someone who was tortured her whole life by the thought of being like her abuser
