Marvel Her-oes (vol. 1) / Grace Randolph / 110 pgs.

This is another superhero spin-off comic that I can get into.  This short series (only 4 issues) focuses on three teen girls, Janet Van Dyne (aka The Wasp), Jenny Walters (The She-Hulk), and Namora (An Atlantean).  They are living in a normal, small town going to a regular high school, but are coming into their superpowers and are pressured by their families to keep it a secret.  There are other "angsty" teen superhero series out there like Teen Titans, Spider-man loves Mary Jane, Hero High, and others; but this one features female characters!!  Personally, I think there needs to be more comics that focus on the female superheros (other than Birds of Prey).  Sadly, it looks like this was it for this series; because I could not find anything on the Net that indicated that there would be more issues published.  *Boo!!!*
