superhero entertainment reaches a new low in the all-new empowered!

Who says superheroes need to have self-esteem? In this all-new series of graphic novels, “Empowered” is a spandex-wrapped supergirl with body-image insecurities, unreliable powers, and a horrendously lame reputation within the superhuman community. Despite the flaws of her cruelly revealing and often-defective "supersuit," Empowered bravely stumbles her way through the ordeals of her C-list superheroic life with the help of her "thugalicious" boyfriend and hard-drinking, female-ninja best friend.

Adam Warren, writer and artist of the English-language Dirty Pair comics, brings you this all-new comic that wipes away every rule of the superhero genre!

“Adam Warren basically invented Original English-Language manga, and he’s still the best,” Chris Warner, editor of Empowered, says. “Empowered is Adam at his absolute wildest, and that’s saying something. Keep your other superhero books away from Empowered, unless you want to collect a pile of ashes and melted mylar.”

 

Empowered features art and story by Adam Warren and will arrive on sale in 2007.
