The Tank Girl movie is what sent me to comics, and it has always colored my preference for weird stories and expressive art. Booga + TG 4ever

It's funny, I LOVED Tank Girl in the 90's, but on re-reading this first edition I was really disappointed - it's not as cool as I remember. I guess I'm a different person to 20 years ago!

Tank Girl is everything I like in a female role - cocky, confident, independent. She is also more than slightly vulgar and while that didn't put me off at all, it is a warning for anyone else reading this book. I recall watching the movie years and years ago and it might be worthy of trying to find a copy to watch again now that I have finished this. The book gave some back info on the writers and how Tank Girl evolved, which was extremely informative and interesting. The artwork is great, but I do feel the frames are extremely congested and sometimes downright busy. Because of this, it took a while to complete this book and even though I could have finished it in one sitting, I didn't because of visual overload. There is lots to Tank Girl's story and the dialogue is intense. I was slightly surprised at the complexity of this graphic novel. I have Tank Girl Two on my shelf and will be getting to it in the next few weeks. This is a must for any Tank Girl fan or anyone who likes a strong female lead.
