On a related note ... I am all about Bedlam!
I forgot to put it in my top five favorite comic books. Well it is not really one of my favorites but as far as being well done ... it is one of the best.
It is a really interesting book, I have no idea which way it is going to go ... I think it's hard to do something so bizarre.

I loved I Love Trouble #1! Felicia is a small-time crook and con-artist who discovers she has a superpower when a plane she's in crashes - and she thinks herself out of it.
She quickly gets used to her new power and uses it to steal stuff, of course. When she goes to pay back some loan shark, with interest, he decides she should work for him - and holds her honey to ensure cooperation.
A great read, lots of action, beautiful look to the art. Felicia is like the best of Catwoman without Batman - devious, smart, funny and tough.

^ Def glad you reviewed that one, FC! I would have probably passed on it.
Meanwhile, I thought Storm Dogs #1 was a solid debut, introducing a world of characters and concepts while maintaining a strong mystery / suspense vibe. My one complaint is there wasn't a lot of "pop" in the opening, though that may be due to some of the artistic choices. The art overall is quite beautiful, specifically the landscapes, but the character designs are very "soft" which doesn't make any one character jump out at me automatically.
That being said, its definitely a tightly written comic that lays the ground work for some major things to come. Writer David Hine is superb--especially these last 3-4 years--so I have faith this is going to get better.
Solid sci-fi series that I'm looking forward to seeing where it goes.
