Grrl Scouts: Magic Socks #1 by Jim Mahfood
3.0
I'm leaning more to a 3.5.
I LOVE Mahfood's art. I was immediately attracted to booth while I was at NY comic-con. I bought this issue mostly because of his art. I then proceeded to find his society6 page and see if I can purchase a phone cover with his art on it. That being said the plot is about three girls called Daphne, Rita, and Gwen who are drug dealers.
I liked the premise and to be honest, the dialogue is quirky and caught my interest. I am not sure if I am going to fully invest in the series (hence why I only got the first issue and not the volume). But I will be getting the next issue as I am intrigued by Daphne's magic socks. If you are not interested in a bunch of girls getting high and some violence, I would recommend that you pass on this series. If so, I give you the green light.

Spoiler
Daphne is caught dealing at a club from a owner who she swindled and the owner ends up trying to kill her. Enter her friend Rita, who helps her out and gets her out unscathed. Meanwhile, Daphne's cousin, Josie, is out to get them because of Daphne's history of torturing her as a child.I liked the premise and to be honest, the dialogue is quirky and caught my interest.
