High octane action film meets comics.

It's my first experience with Warren Ellis - Global Frequency. There are crazy action sequence with shot outs and races to save bombs. Plus, it's a diverse cast of 1001. Okay, so we don't see all 1001 Global Frequency operatives in the first tpb, but we do see a smattering of folks from all over the globe. Miranda Zero is a kick-ass woman who heads the group that can solve things when other people can't. The agents aren't just super strong or good with weapons, many are on the team because they are super smart. Oh, it's nice to see that it is cool to be super smart and you might just be able to save the world. Plus, the center of all communication is spunky punk girl with a mohawk and ear full of piercings name Aleph. In case you hadn't noticed, I am excited to see the strong women and diverse characters. If only are blockbuster movies looked more like that.
