Aphrodite IX

This is a title that has been on my books to read list for close to a decade ever since I saw a copy of it sitting on the shelf at Borders.  By looking at the cover you can tell this is a throwback to the 90's with the blatant objectification of women through the art.  This is a story that is very similar to that of Philip K. Dick novels.  Aphrodite IX is a nice little gem of a story I mean who doesn't like a gorgeous woman with green hair.  Unfortunately it falls short because the end of the book feels like the middle of a larger story.  But this isn't a bad thing since Image Comics is now publishing a new volume of stories which will continue the story from the loose ends left from this volume.
