Hopeless Savages Greatest Hits Volume 1 by Jen Van Meter
4.0
Picked this up on a recommendation from a patron. She described previously hating graphic novels and manga until she met the Hopeless-Savage family, so I decided to take a look.
It takes a little bit to get used to the pace and all the characters (the family is comprised of 6 members with a couple school and music industry friends on the side), but I ended up liking the family and how much they stick together. I love Zero's style and innocence, Arsenal's fire and strength, and Rat's accent (that may or may not have been read out loud for funsies).
This is a compendium of 3 smaller books, with frequently-rotating artists, about a family created from the union of two punk legends. It focuses on the unity of the family and acceptance of one another's unique natures (each family member has at least quirk).
