Freaks' Squeele Megapost
Freaks' Squeele is a French comic about a trio of aspiring heroes: Xiong Mao, a martial artist who makes up for her lack of super powers with relentless determination, Chance, a spunky demon girl, and Ombre de Loup, a softhearted wolf-man. Attending the Faculty of Academic Education for Heroes, the trio find themselves thrown into a wild maelstrom of superhero exams, the shady dealings of the F.A.E.H.'s dean, a violent rivalry with another hero school, and the occasional gingerbread soldier uprising or giant Lego man destroying the town.
It's a really fun comic I recommend to anyone interested in a bizarre yet well thought out take on fantasy and super heroes that doesn't take itself too seriously.
Excellent post! I never heard of this series but I'm going to check it out now.
ReplyDeleteBy the way I was going to make my new Hestia post but out of respect I'll wait a little bit so your post can stay on the first page.
Thanks. XD It's a lot of fun!
DeleteI remember reading that a while back and LOVE that the artist draws a lot of foot shots for people like us to take a gander at, even the joke she included with Tantino was hilarious acknowledgement of that. :p
ReplyDeleteAnd, not that I see it's picked up again, I'll have to check out the next volume and see where it's gone since the twin brothers arc.
