La Muse
There are plenty of web-comics around to compete for your attention, but if you’re in the market, Big Head Press has one called La Muse that’s really slick. You want action? Check. You want shadowy conspiracies? Check. You want updates every week? Check. You want nicely drawn ass-kicking womenfolk? Check!
La Muse plays with the story of Susan, an activist with super powers who is bent on saving the world from itself, and the enemies she makes along her way. Her sister Libby is a reasonably successful Hollywood agent, pushed into trying to manage Susan, who’s very public displays of her super abilities have made her a media sensation. The whole tale is presented in great artwork that seems too vibrant to be on a computer monitor. If this is your kind of thing, or if you've just got some time to kill at work, it's worth popping over for a look.
La Muse is updated every Monday, until the story ends.
