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.
