Now the task of a filling a top ten out so many books might leave some books that I love out of the list but a list of ten is so limited. But I guess I have to do it.

Preview Time – Savage Beauty #2

I really enjoyed the first issue of Savage Beauty and as such I’m looking forward to the second issue. You can check out the first four pages minus the dialog of the issue right here so enjoy. An updating of the Jungle Girl genre tale, SAVAGE BEAUTY uses two very strong female leads to not only introduce pulp like heroics into the jungles of today’s world, but also tackles real life issues.   The comic is a tool of vital partnership between its creators and agencies and organizations dedicated to making life better and even saving lives in Kenya, Africa, and other ravaged lands.
