Vulnerability Is My Superpower: An Underpants and… por Jackie Davis
Feel good comics! I’m so happy that I saw her booth at the Montreal Comic Arts Festival.
Oh gosh, is this book relatable! Jackie E. Davis has crafted an absolutely hilarious yet totally truthful book in Vulnerability is My Superpower: An Underpants and Overbites Collection.
This selection of comics is seriously funny but hits way too close to home. In all the best ways, of course! I truly marvel at how much this book made me smile, chuckle and feel like someone understood me. Life and adulting is hard, so books like this that can make light of some of the tougher and stranger parts of adulthood is always welcome. I love it and highly recommend picking this book up.
I will say, I am kind of judging Jackie though... Who likes bugs flying into their mouth? That's the one part of adulthood (and my childhood, for goodness sake) that I'm definitely over. Or when they fly into my eyes... No thank you! Please explain Jackie!
The comics are goofy and silly (which is the point) but also are colourful and sassy enough to keep you interested. It's a set of comics that you can binge or jump back into if you don't want to commit. It has everything going for it that I want in a small comic strip series. Jackie, you are awesome! Thank you!
Five out of five stars.

Note: I accessed a digital review copy of this book through Edelweiss.
Set mainly in the 50's New Plymouth, this first novel from Jackie Davis is narrated by an unnamed nine-year-old girl, third daughter in a family of four (the youngest, Bertie, is a 2-year-old boy, doomed to wear his sisters' castoff dresses). Their mother is a beautiful aspiring concert pianist, sustained by the memory of a poem published when she was at school, who brings her family up in an atmosphere of cigarettes and classical music.
