“She’s Marjorie Finnegan. She’s a temporal criminal. What more do you need to know?
Oh, all right then: all Marj wants to do is race up and down the time-lanes, stealing every shiny-gleamy-pretty-sparkly she can lay her hands on. But her larcenous trail from the Big Bang to the Ninety-fifth Reich has drawn the beady eye of the Temporal PD, whose number one Deputy Marshall is now hard on our heroine’s tail– and taking things extremely personally. Worse still, Marj’s worthless creep of an ex and his even scummier partner have seen an angle of their own in all this, and now intend to use her time-tech to change history for their own benefit. Marj’s only ally? A guy called Tim. And he’s just a head.”
Thoughts…The solicitation does a great job of not only setting the story but also the tone of this series. This is not to be taken seriously at all, and is a full on adult comedy from the start and it does not let up at all throughout the 8 issue run. You can see from the outset that this would make a really cool TV series, the narrative and the characters would be great as something on Netflix. It gives a feeling that this is a series that could go just about anywhere over the course of its run and really has some fun moments throughout. Imagine a female Deadpool that travels through causing all sorts of trouble for shits and giggles.
This is an 8 out of 10 for me, very funny throughout and a very different read to a lot of the other AWA titles. If you like this series I would recommend Knighted as well.
