Astro City, Vol. 10: Victory by Kurt Busiek

4.0

This book focuses on Winged Victory and how a smear campaign against her & her good works could completely undo her years of work helping empower women. I do think that's it's sad that the whole point of this book is about how Victory feels that women must work to rescue themselves (rather than always BEING rescued), yet the synopsis reads "When criminal charges are brought against Winged Victory, the Confessor (male hero) must investigate and it leads to open combat with Samaritan (male hero)!"...seeming to indicate that the focus is on the men in the story & how they save the day. Seems like someone didn't get the memo.
