Summary:

Jalissa and Kim Vasquez are just two ordinary cousins trying to make a living on their own. Well…they’re mostly ordinary. They may or may not have a superhero gig on the side. That all depends on how you define being a superhero. Is it fighting monsters and protecting the public? Or is it having a good social media presence?

When they’re not fighting monsters in the dark, these two cousins work at a famous coffee chain. It’s not the most glamorous job, but it does pay the bills (mostly).

Review:

From the moment I first saw the cover of Hovergirls, I knew I had to read it. The artwork looked so fun and captivating; it gave me a lot of hope for the characters and story within.

Overall, I would say that Hovergirls is a decent read. It’s solid and has a lot of potential—it just needs some fine-tuning. Jalissa and Kim are great characters, but we need more time to get to know them and appreciate their situation.

If you enjoy a chaos-fueled adventure with bright artwork, Hovergirls is a great book to dive into. You can also read the webcomic! I love it when webcomics make their way to publication, but it’s always nice going back to the source, too.

• Originally a Webcomic
