Tank Girl: The Royal Escape

By Jamie Hewlitt

This Tank Girl doesn't start in an interesting way, but after getting through most of the first issue, the best part is a shirt which reads: "Frankie says you're a cunt". The sketches, (since it's the feeling it gives) leave me underwhelmed. Dayglo isn't impressing me with this series, unfortunately. Then this line captured my heart, "Bang bang, you're dead, fifty bullets in your head, one's red, one's blue, one's full of chicken poo!"

Doesn't it have the potential to charm the pants off one? Makes me giggle to think about. Then it turns into a Aztecan-like Power Rangers. The second issue ends on an interesting arc, which is fortunate (I was not entertained there for awhile). The third issue finally sounds like good "ole" Tank Girl and the pace quickens and becomes a nice comic again, but leaves one feeling desolate towards the end.
