Faith Volume 1: Hollywood and Vine by Jody Houser

How have I not heard of this before? This is one of the best comics I've read in a while!

Faith...she was the kind of hero I loved growing up. The one who didn't give up, who had clever plans to beat the bad guy, who cared enough to give it her all no matter what.

And honestly, it was so nice to see a Heroine accepted for who she was. Aside from one line from a villain, no one questioned Faith or that she used to be with. No one questioned her ability to get the job done.

I loved it.

I do wish we had a bit about what exactly "the Vine" was doing to the psiots". They hooked them up and made them brainwashed zombies...or something? It was a bit skiffy, but that's fine. I want more please.… (more)

Faith Volume 1: Hollywood and Vine by Jody Houser

Faith is a fresh, funny and action packed new comic series. Jody Houser's writing is just fantastic and the artwork is bright and traditional and lovely. I was immediately drawn to the story and the humour on offer, and Faith herself is just a delightful character to follow. I really enjoyed this book and felt like it just went by in a flash, I can't wait to read on and discover more about the characters and the world they inhabit. I recommend this, for sure.

Faith Volume 1: Hollywood and Vine by Jody Houser

I liked this, mostly because Faith is an awesome character. I wish I found the other characters interesting - so far she was the only thing that kept me reading, but maybe as the series continues the other characters will step up.

Faith Volume 1: Hollywood and Vine by Jody Houser

This was my kind of fun—a superhero who’s a Joss Whedon fangirl whose secret identity is a writer for a Buzzfeed-like blog. The L.A. setting is perfect for this character, the dialogue is clever, and Faith is extremely likeable. I’ll be sure to check out the next.
