I've not yet properly thought about the best way to show off 50 Girls 50 #1, so here's just one page to showcase the art and the general theme of the book.


There's a few basic premises to this book.
#1 mankind uses wormholes to explore the galaxy looking for a replacement to planet Earth
#2 only women can travel through these wormholes
#3 the women on these expeditions are humanities best and brightest, even though they're girls (I'm paraphrasing, but the book does make that point)
#4 Space mud dissolves plastic


And then their clothes fall off

Yeah this.

I hate, hate, hate, hate it when writers make it so that DNA is involved in stuff that it should not by any means be involved. See also, Ray Palmer's DNA being the only thing that kept him from exploding due to his size-changing belt.

It might not even be DNA, but it's definitely still stupid.

Vagina detecting wormhole?

What if someone has a bone-marrow transplant from a woman? Or is genetically intersect? Is the filter inclusionary or exclusionary?

In space, no-one can hear you fap.

I am not digging the art. They all look sunburned, and have squinty faces.

Yes, they all look mildly annoyed - or as though they can smell something bad.

To be fair being in this kind of book is good reason to look annoyed.

I'm bothered more by the fact that (as usual) they all have the same damn face.

Reading the whole thing, it's actually strangely impressive how the plot is somehow perfectly structured so that the women lose their clothes a little bit at a time; it's like each page (and sometimes each panel on a page) they're wearing less and less.

Yes, what about the transponders??

That Patrick Stewart clip is a good'un.

I will be interested to learn, when you do figure out the best way.
