This book manages a lighter tone than most Valiant fare, including the Harbinger stories the title character stems from, but without straying into dangerously "cutesy" territory. The bright and colourful art serves the writing well and vice versa.I will certainly "keep the faith" and read the next volume.
3.5 starsFaith is just a likable character. You can't help but like her and because of that, you really can't help but like her comic. You don't see a lot of unbridled optimism in superheroes anymore, which makes her a nice fresh breath of air. She's also got a geeky internal monologue going on that I think most of us who read comics can relate to in a Haha! That's exactly what I would be thinking, too! way.So why not 4 full stars?Well, the main story wasn't all that memorable, to be honest. In
I have never read anything with Faith in it before but it didn't take away from the story. I thought it was pretty good. Faith is trying to go it alone without her crew. She works a regular job during the day and helps people by night or in the day time if need be. She is a very sweet character. My favorite was when she saved the dogs =DI loved the graphics as well. She had some help trying to find out what was going on with these evil peeps and it all turned out okay in the end. I hope to read
Faith, alias Zephyr (her super hero name) and Summer (her regular boring job name), is plus-sized, or "fuller figured," and this isn't even mentioned in the comic in any way, which is unique, surprising, refreshing. The story is vanilla. She's a Clark Kent-type journalist, but she works in social media. She has a super cute sculpted ex she is trying to get back into saving the world with her. This has a lot of energy and is pretty fun, I thought.
Faith is your plus size super hero and she has a double identity. She was part of a team and now she is on her own in LA. She has a job and she is kick-ass and compassionate.The art didn't stand out to me really. I did like her costume with the coat tails being what flaps in the wind. It's smart. This is a smart comic connected to a larger universe it appears. I wasn't too into the villain and there was a whole lot of angst. It was a great comic.
Valiant's best series in a long while. Faith is an uber-nerd with superpowers. The dialogue is snappy and full of nerdy pop culture references. I like her burgeoning relationship with Archer. They are my two favorite characters in the Valiant universe. Francis Portela's art is great. We need more Faith!
Absolutely love this! I'm guessing there is some other series I should have read before this but I'm not sure what it is and this volume does a pretty good job of filling in blanks on who all these people in her life are so I didn't actually feel like I was missing much. There isn't necessarily a lot of depth in this first volume, but I feel like it's a good start and also it's just nice to read something light that makes you feel good every once in awhile. I know a lot of people probably think
I enjoyed the artwork and the storyline. The reality tv show was tongue in cheek funny. I liked that the MC was not the typical bosomy skinny mini with muscles on muscles and gravity-defying barely there costumes. My only quibble is I feel like there is much more back story that I wasn't caught up on enough to catch everything in this volume. I would like to read more of the back story and would like to read the continuation of Faith's story. 4 solid stars.
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.
Not a follower of Valiant, so I felt a little afloat regarding characters & back story. A little too much cutesy romantic fantasy. Still funny. What I found to be the most ridiculous, unbelievable, downright far-fetched nonsense? That full-page shot of Faith flying over the 405 freeway. Those lush green hills and big fluffy trees are pure fantasy in the desert that is Southern California. Has the artist ever been to L.A.? OUTRAGEOUS MISREPRESENTATION.
In the first volume of the series, Faith is a former superhero who left her superhero teammates to strike out on her own. Working as a reporter for a smalltime website using the alias of Summer Smith, Faith works her regular job during the day and heroics at night as Zephyr. In her first case on her own, Faith runs into a rather nasty cult involved in the disappearances of gifted people. It's up to Faith and her friends to deal with the cult before anyone gets hurt. I've only ever heard good thi...
