Master graphic novelist Dave Sim — the creator of Cerebus — returns! Glamourpuss is three comic books in one: a parody of fashion magazines, a history of photorealism in comics (starting with Alex Raymond's Rip Kirby in 1946), and the strangest super-heroine comic book of all time! Featuring the first appearance of Glamourpuss, her evil twin sister Skanko, and the heroine's long-time therapist Dr. Norm. Available with two covers — a "Comics Edition" with a classic EC-style cover, and a "Fashion Edition" that parodies fashion magazines.
BONUS REVIEW by GARY OWENS
Outspoken, aardvark-loving Dave Sims reintroduces himself in “glamourpuss.” Disclosure: there is NO story. None. If you read Cerebus, you understand David, and his ramblings, in his letter pages. This issue is all ramblings: fashion models, a look at the art of Rip Hunter, and sarcasm. Good for people who ONLY like letter pages. For others:
I give it 4 out of 10 Grahams
