FEMFORCE #136
Synopsis:
ALL-NEW, never-before-seen!! Not a SINGLE reprint!! Just inside a
breathtaking jungle-themed, digitally-painted cover by guest-artist
Gene Gonzalez is another top-flight potpurri of great contemporary "good
girl" art comics action!!!
Open with a retro SHE-CAT tale set
in 1952, and co-starring Miss Masque. "Death of the Goddess" features
our ferocious feline's second encounter with the OTHER cat-deity-
inspired female, Bastis- which takes place on board a luxury cruise
ship. Written by Chris Irving, with art by Larry Guidry & Jeff
Austin, it's a film-noire mood masterpiece.
Then, MS. VICTORY fights
side-by-side with hubby PARAGON to stop an evil madman's bid to take
control of a US Army base, and the offbeat conclusion leaves Joan
with a strange secret that she may well keep from even her "better
half". Written by Chad Halcom, with art by Halcom & Mark
Heike.
Then, Gene Gonzalez teams with writer Paul Monsky on "Rio
Diablo" in a retro story picking up from events way back in
Femforce Special #2. That sultry super-spy RIO RITA comes across
an ally while facing off with gansters in the South American jungles-
none other than IRISH of the JUNGLE!!
Plus, another Monsky-wrtten
piece, a TARA illustrated text story, "The Victor & The
Vanquished", with art by Ed Coutts.
Finally, our masked heroine
escapes certain death to neutralize four vicious mafiosos in "Revenge
of the Blue Bulleteer", written by Enrico Teodorani, with art
by Marco Caldi.
44 pages, black & white with color covers; standard
