EMPOWERED TP VOL 02 NEW PTG

ADAM WARREN (W/A) On sale Sept. 5 b&w, 208 pages $14.95 TPB, 6' x 9' Empowered returns for further misadventures, as a distress-prone girl wonder struggles with life on the superheroic C-list! Clad-or unclad, as fate would too often have it-in her embarrassingly revealing and maddeningly unreliable supersuit, she fights a neverending battle against overly sensitive supervillains, irrationally envious superheroines, and her own body-image issues! Meanwhile, her boyfriend, Thugboy, plays with fire when he foolhardily attempts to compliment his profoundly insecure sweetheart on the awe-inspiring power of her . . . well, booty. And her often-inebriated gal-pal, Ninjette, pursues a drunken and ultimately disastrous mission to acquire Empowered some respect-by force if necessary! All this, plus crossword-obsessed goons, speech-impaired superbeasts, 'Ninjas Gone Wild,' and even a few self-help hints from nigh-omnipotent cosmic overlords! You know, the usual.
