it was amazing
bookshelves: graphic-novels

A truly great parody comic. Ben Edlund cheerfully skewers ninjas, Superman, superheroes in general, Elektra and Dick Tracy. Some of it hasn't aged entirely well � a lot of the Elektra jokes seem to depend on knowing her 1980s adventures (I don't) � but the Dick Tracy parody is so bizarre it stands on its own.
I was surprised not to see some of the cartoon superheroes (American Maid, Sewer Urchin) here, but they weren't really needed.
