Who Is AC?

Like Heinz Doofenshmirtz, the villain here isn't out for world domination, just mayhem in his town. That keeps AC (Anonymous Coward as dubbed by the blogger) a local phenomena. Lin lives in a small town and her heroism will probably remain off the radar of the big cities. It's a nice change from having everything set in one of the big names like New York City, Chicago, San Francisco or fictional ones like Metropolis or Gotham.

This is one of the most "okay" graphic novels I've ever read. 3 stars seems too high, but 2 stars seems too low. Yet, 2.5 stars also doesn't seem fitting.

In this breakthrough graphic novel from the award-winning author of Mercury, there’s a new superhero in town—and she’s got kick-butt cyberpowers. Meet Lin, a formerly average teenage girl whose cell phone zaps her with magical powers. But just as superpowers can travel through the ether, so can evil. As Lin starts to get a handle on her new abilities (while still observing her curfew!), she realizes she has to go head-to-head with a nefarious villain who spreads his influence through binary code. And as if that weren’t enough, a teen blogger has dubbed her an “anonymous coward!” Can Lin detect the cyber-criminal’s vulnerability, save the day, and restore her reputation? With ingenious scripting from graphic novel phenom Hope Larson and striking art from manga illustrator Tintin Pantoja, this action-packed story brims with magical realism and girl-power goodness.
