Looks good.

I think this is an amazing move for VEI. Faith can very easily become an Indy hit. A true geek girl who's relatable to everyone.

Sounds good. I like that Faith is trying to emulate the tropes of superheroes, it should be pleasantly self-aware in that regard. I hope they use her power set cleverly to sell her as a capable solo heroine- she essentially has gravity control powers, so there's a fair bit of wiggle room there.

Yeah, I can see her being good for marketing. While you occasionally see non-idealized female characters in comics, rarely are they as far from that as Faith is. Which is not only refreshing, but also contrasts nicely with her idealistic outlook. She's both a challenge to and a celebration of the medium!

Hopefully, if this can sell to support it, this can herald an ongoing for her. Though the mini series format works well, IMHO, given the way comic series tend to be released these days. Planned seasons are generally a good thing, except for the wait in between.

Could this possibly be the "new" female superhero book they were talking about?
