DARK HORSE COMICS FIRST LOOKS
FIRST LOOK: EMPOWERED SPECIAL #2: TEN QUESTIONS FOR THE MAIDMAN
Empowered Special #2: Ten Questions for the Maidman will arrive in stores on June 8 from Dark Horse Comics. The issue is written by Adam Warren, with art by Adam Warren and Emily Warren.
Here's how Dark Horse describes the issue:
"The badass, broom-swinging vigilante Maidman, the 'cross-dressing crusader,' is interviewed by the super-phony 'celebricape' TV host of an ill-fated talk show. The confab soon degenerates from happy chatter to cape-on-cape violence! Meanwhile, costumed crimefighter Empowered exploits Maidman's fearsome reputation not only to victimize hapless supervillains, but also to get the upper hand on her recalcitrant boyfriend!
"In a new one-shot spinning off from the sexy superhero comedy graphic-novel series Empowered, creator Adam Warren draws 14 black-and-white pages that frame and cruelly interrupt a 15-page story painted in glorious full color by special guest artist Emily 'No Relation' Warren!"
Empowered Special #2: Ten Questions for the Maidman will be 32 pages and will cost $3.50.
