Gotta say that IMO Emp is right up there with Modesty Blaise when it comes to interesting and 5-dimensional female characters (not to mention that as well as penning great tales, Adam Warren is one of the rare comic book artists that's actually seen and can draw a human female body instead of using his Barbie collection as models). And I'm looking VERY forward to volume 6. :-)
P.S. I think I need an Empowered icon. ;p
