Reviews

reviewed C.O.W.L. by Kyle Higgins (C.O.W.L, #2)

Gritty tale of superheros, unions, and 1960s Chicago

No rating

Not really many likeable characters in this series, but I didn't ever really feel the story was trying to convince you otherwise. Superheros playing politics, and showing solidarity (or not) to get their own best possible deal. But, I just loved the 1960s Chicago neighborhoods and people as backdrop, with the original "Da Mayor" as a crucial, unsavory, player.
