MINX is DC Comics line of books for teenaged girls. Written by Cecil Castellucci with art by Jim Rugg, I think this book was a great starting point for the Minx line of comics. The book has received much mainstream press from the New York Time to Vanity Fair. Jane who is the protagonist is someone I can identify with. She wants to live, be different and have her own life. She is creative and that is what makes this comic work. The story took me back to school when people try to fit in so hard that all you want to do is be different and The Plain Janes are different, so different everyone wants to be part of the action. Although I am no longer a teenage girl I don’t feel as if I can’t read this book. It may be aimed at teenage girls but I think this book would be good for a person of any age. I am looking forward to picking up the rest of the books in the Minx line when they come out.
