Soon I will be invincible
Soon I will be invincible / Austin Grossman 237 pgs.
I can't get enough of this book told from the viewpoint of a villain Dr. Impossible - the smartest man in the world, and Fatale - a cyborg billed as the "next generation of warfare" and new member of the "New Champions". The last couple of times I read this book, I raved about Dr. Impossible. He is still impossibly funny to me but this time around I really have a new appreciation for Fatale. She is the new girl in the club and is worried about making friends, being accepted and maybe getting some action from fellow team mate and all around hottie, Blackworlf. There are so many great lines in this book but it adds up to more than just great lines...even the super heroes among us have the same doubts, struggles and issues. Grossman does a wonderful job of telling a very human story with extraordinary characters. Still waiting for the movie version of this book!
