I love the take on the perfect housewife except she's an assassin. The art was also fantastic! This is a Graphic comic so warning for that, but I wasn't as disturbed by it because they made the blood black and that made it easier for me I guess.
Trigger warning for kinda favorable view of nazis? There is a former nazi in the book and they're never like, disparaged for the fact that they were a nazi.... but I'm not Jewish so I can't speak to whether the content was problematic or not.

The first part of Lady Killer is decent but lacking in substance. Still makes for entertaining read though.

1960's housewife serial killer/assassin..... what more could you want. Josie is working on her work/life balance, especially when you need to find your target, get close enough, and murder them.
I enjoyed this story because it played with classic stereotypes of the perfect woman/wife. It somehow manages to make me root for a crazed psychopathic killer and I do not mind.

Sure, it's not a deep story, but it's a very enjoyable read. The art is outstanding, sometimes very gory, but in a classy way. I'd love to read more. 4.5 stars
