grav_ity(note: this series starts with volume 0, which means I am NEVER GOING TO BE ABLE TO KEEP TRACK OF THEM.)
Anyway, this one was waaaaaaaay plottier than the first two Silk volumes, so it was a bit less funny, but still packed with awesome ladies who are badass in a variety of ways, which is really all I ask for from life.
I love how these comics address Cindy's trauma without kicking her while she's down, and I love how they don't use her "victimhood" to make her a hero (does that even make sense? I meant they're not gratuitously beating her up to give her something to conquer within herself. Like, they give her actual villains to fight, instead).
Also: awesome lesbians, good bosses, Mockingbird, family, a talking dragon, and Silk is really good at her powers.
