Over at BlogHer, SJ has posted a review of several of her favorite graphic novels, all featuring strong female leads. I've never been a graphic novel person myself, but her description has me itching to check out Girl Genius. I'll be looking forward to the second installment of her piece, and I bet you will too.

I've got a lot of early run of Girl Genius before I stopped regularly going to comic book shops. It's got a pretty good art direction and smart writing, and the authors have done lots of supporting material for their very odd world.

I quite enjoy Girl Genius, myself.

What a coincidence! I just recommended the second volume.
