X-Statix Attax! (Day 4)

My aversion to zombies notwithstanding, I really liked Dead Girl. With her powers to communicate with the deceased and animate her own severed limbs, she was a little more cynical than the rest and just so hilarious, I couldn’t deny her. The fact that she becomes a model and glamour icon is one of the more particularly biting social commentaries of the series.

Dead Girl actually gets an eponymous limited series after X-Statix ends and I have to say, even though it’s the same creative team, the tone of this book was too silly for my tastes. It read like a sequel to Beetlejuice, even reusing some of the same jokes. Not a fan.
