A girl is a superhero. She is shy. This had the occasional good episode (the early one about the non-superhero friend, the one about the Swiss girl I loved, one about the Russian girl’s past was also good) but overall I feel like it tried to do too much and failed. Spent too much time …
Grieving Soul #01 — The Importance of Proper Paperwork

It had really good shows with a big range of styles. But The Fable was always lurking there in its low-key fashion. Anything but flashy to be …
