Madame Mirage

    (Image, 2007–2008)

The glamorous, shapeshifting (among other powers) Madame Mirage and her carrier-class cleavage take on big business and mercenary superpowers by assassinating them both. It’s got intrigue and it’s probably not as retro-noir or glam as writer Paul Dini seems to be striving for, but it’s a solid start. Kenneth Rocafort’s art is worthy of a lingering gaze, like Bill Plympton mimicking the Top Cow house style. Still, Mirage has her opponents so outclassed from the start it does just tend to feel mean sometimes. Sure, they’re the bad guys, but she’s the one shooting them in the back and crashing them into jet planes unprovoked and unhindered.
