Good story and wonderful artwork, would be better if the Sunday comics that are included were rotated for the digital version so it would flow better.

Super book. Great artwork, very well developed story line. Would love to see a follow-up with same characters and producers.

This character is very different from Batgirl. Her Latino background is refreshing as it adds diversity to comics. I wish the references to popular characters weren't in it though. This book can stand on its own and I'd hate to see someone get sued.

Classic Champions adventure with great b&w art inside and fun time nostalgic feel for anyone who played earlier versions of the Champions super-hero game. Usable for later versions with minimal updates to the character write ups. Great starter game for a new campaign with potential team HQ and continuing NPC's.

The Heroic comics vision is more creative than that of the "big 2" and riskier to boot. I've been a fan of Dennis Mallonee's work for two decades. Here they tell new "back stories" that stand up well as is. The artwork holds up well enough and the plot lines hook you. I particularly enjoy the tales of magic that spotlight Rose/Psyche for their awareness and groundedness, as this one is.

The art is amazing and the story is very intriguing with unexpected twists. Some of the word choice isn't culturally sensitive or PC so I highly recommend Anthem but that's why I gave 4/5 stars.

Flare is the most recognizable character in the Heroic Publishing stable, and this collection of her stories is accessible and well made. The stories are full-on superhero tales, but there is a tongue-in-cheek nature that helps make them fun to read.
The art is cheesecakey, but the characterizations are well thought out. Heroic doesn't shy away from the stereotypical superhero body-style, instead it makes that a key element of the art. It's distracting enough to appeal to the adolescent boy, but not so much that it's not a decent read for the rest of us.
Overall a good value at the Drive Thru price. You get a lot for your money here. Note: these will just collect the Flare adventures, not the backup stories from other Heroic characters like Liberty Girl that might have been in the original issues.

Another fun installment with great twists and moral lessons in this Roy Thomas series.

Includes two heart felt stories and fun characters. This best Christmas comic I've read.

Roy Thomas is STILL the best writer in comics, and Anthem is just as exciting as - and perhaps more timely (no pun intended) than Invaders, All-Star Squadron, Avengers, or any work he's done before. The art is quite good, and tells the story (something that too many artists neglect). This series deserves to be continued, and certainly deserves to be a success.

This is a great book. A great Silver Age feel and a very interesting promise of things to come. It was a beautiful piece of art as well.

This book is a fun read along with a cool history lesson on Mister Crime.
The Alter Ego superhero books pay homage to comic genres of years gone by, and this issue pays homage to Crime Comics. The storytelling is classic and the art harkens back to the old school Marvel house style.
And the star of the book is Brother Crime, the ghostly narrator who influences the evil doers to fall deeper into their crimes. While Brother Crime is modeled after the old Mister Crime character from old books like Crime Does Not Pay, he turns out to be an old nemesis of Alter Ego. This was a fun twist.

A fun read that starts out with plenty of action in the first couple of pages. The artwork is definitely "classic" when compared to today's comics, but still a lot of fun.
"The Mystery of Psyche" is a great mini-tale and I'm looking forward to the conclusion in the next issue.
