*Book source ~ Library Contains 5 stories in the continuing Season 8 of the Buffyverse, where vampires are suddenly the hot new thing because of the ditz Harmony getting her own reality tv show and propaganda against the slayers have forced them into hiding. Harmonic Divergence~ Ok, somehow stup...
I have to admit I really enjoyed this, and I wonder if that's almost a sign of Stockholm Syndrome, or at least getting more used to the comic book form, than it's to the merits of this particular volume. Spoilers below, so don't jump on me if you continue reading the review--you've been warned. It'...
This is one of those ones where you would really need to be familiar with the Marvel worlds to understand what is going on and the whys of the character motivations. Still it's an interesting twist, what would happen if everyone had superpowers? What would happen with the few superheroes who had ...

Most of the characters in Project Superpowers were previously published in the forties and fifties by comic book ...

The reality teevee show thing feels overdone; I just wish they could have found another way to get the anti-Slay...
So far, my least favorite volume in season 8. It felt rather more disjointed than previous volumes, though there were some good, strong scenes.
