I love crime comics。 Sometimes I don't want anything more than a good story to pull me in and keep turning the pages。 BAD MOTHER was exactly the medicine I needed during a busy week - - "a suburban noir crime thriller about a soccer mom on the warpath against the crime syndicate that abducted her daughter。" Tip for gangsters: never piss off a mother in the middle of a mid-life crisis and give her new purpose and determination。 Writer Chirsta Faust makes that all-too evident in this fast-paced t I love crime comics。 Sometimes I don't want anything more than a good story to pull me in and keep turning the pages。 BAD MOTHER was exactly the medicine I needed during a busy week - - "a suburban noir crime thriller about a soccer mom on the warpath against the crime syndicate that abducted her daughter。" Tip for gangsters: never piss off a mother in the middle of a mid-life crisis and give her new purpose and determination。 Writer Chirsta Faust makes that all-too evident in this fast-paced thriller。 It was so nice to see what stellar artist Mike Deodato can illustrate outside of superhero comics。 His work here enhances the story so well。 His realistic art and use of two-page grids to envelop the often over-lapping panels is inventive - - like viewing the story through smartphone screens （which play an important role in the story）。 。。。more

Take a little john wick， a little Taken， and a little breaking bad and mix it in a pot and you get this。。。in the best way possible。 After her daughter goes missing April decides to take matters into her own hands since the police are doing jack shit to find out what happened to her。 So this is like a mystery thriller mixed with some home alone making your own traps type shit。 Funny enough it reminds me a lot of Nobody， a movie that just came out， but with a soccer mom twist。 The art is solid but Take a little john wick， a little Taken， and a little breaking bad and mix it in a pot and you get this。。。in the best way possible。 After her daughter goes missing April decides to take matters into her own hands since the police are doing jack shit to find out what happened to her。 So this is like a mystery thriller mixed with some home alone making your own traps type shit。 Funny enough it reminds me a lot of Nobody， a movie that just came out， but with a soccer mom twist。 The art is solid but moody and sometimes a bit too dark。 I also think the last issue wrapped up a bit too quick at times。 But besides those two things I REALLY enjoyed this。 The dialogue was fast and fun， the pacing was near perfect， and the brutal deaths worked real well。 Bad Mother is a great comic that works well for fans of thrillers and semi-ridiculous premises。 Check it out！ Awa rarely misses。 。。。more

This was an intense story about a mother who was seen as useless by her husband and daughter。 She finds herself when her daughter is kidnapped。 It was awesome。 I read it all in one sitting and couldn't wait to flip the page。 The only thing that really took me out of the book was the fact that none of the main characters had any consequences。 Blow up a building， no consequences。 Shoot a man in the head in broad daylight， nothing。 The whole no consequences thing works alright in her other story Re This was an intense story about a mother who was seen as useless by her husband and daughter。 She finds herself when her daughter is kidnapped。 It was awesome。 I read it all in one sitting and couldn't wait to flip the page。 The only thing that really took me out of the book was the fact that none of the main characters had any consequences。 Blow up a building， no consequences。 Shoot a man in the head in broad daylight， nothing。 The whole no consequences thing works alright in her other story Redemption， but that's the "Wild" West。 It's called wild for a reason。 This is the age of technology and there is no way the police are just letting this mom get away with everything she does。 。。。more

This was just a quick paced fun “action” read that gave me breaking bad Walter White vibes quite a bit。

Tested to her limits and beyond， April Walters discovers that hell hath no fury like a mother scorned。 She would do literally anything and everything to get her missing daughter back。 Watson’s Review: Holy squirrel chase。 This book had as much action as my sister chasing a rabbit through the yard。 As mom read me this， I learned that bad means good （the English language is so weird）。 It’s great to see how far a mom will go to protect their child。 My mom protects me from all kinds of things。。。 lik Tested to her limits and beyond， April Walters discovers that hell hath no fury like a mother scorned。 She would do literally anything and everything to get her missing daughter back。 Watson’s Review: Holy squirrel chase。 This book had as much action as my sister chasing a rabbit through the yard。 As mom read me this， I learned that bad means good （the English language is so weird）。 It’s great to see how far a mom will go to protect their child。 My mom protects me from all kinds of things。。。 like door ways and slick floors。 If you want a well drawn and written action book， this is the one for you。 Paws up: no dogs were hurt in this bookPaws down: there were no dogs in this book。 🐾 。。。more

Picture it。 Modern day suburbia。 April Walters is a put upon housewife。 Her kids have little use for her and April's life seems to be an endless series of soul-wrenching loads of laundry and car rides to various activities for her kids。But when her daughter disappears， April starts searching for her。 What she finds invests this crime thriller with a serious dramatic heft as April turns from a put upon woman to a mom who will do anything to save her daughter from criminals out to end her life and Picture it。 Modern day suburbia。 April Walters is a put upon housewife。 Her kids have little use for her and April's life seems to be an endless series of soul-wrenching loads of laundry and car rides to various activities for her kids。But when her daughter disappears， April starts searching for her。 What she finds invests this crime thriller with a serious dramatic heft as April turns from a put upon woman to a mom who will do anything to save her daughter from criminals out to end her life and/or worse。This was originally published as five individual comic books and through the first four issues， it was quite a decent read as we see the evolution of April as she tracks her daughter and those who took her。 Watching her evolve from a mom that's always late picking her son up to someone who uses the internet to learn how to make a bomb provides some great reading。The fifth and final chapter of the story was fine in most respects but I was left wanting at the way things just kind of went back to normal。 Maybe it was a desire to see what happens next or I just felt the resolution wasn't to my liking but it did end up affecting my overall enjoyment of the story。Still， the story by Christa Faust with art from Mike Deodato， Jr。 draws the reader in and makes you glad to see a story focused on a woman who becomes a badass my necessity rather than design。 。。。more

A five part small scale crime series。 A little bit predictable towards the end， but still enjoyable the whole way through。 Great artwok。 4/5
