Anastasia Collins- beautiful, smart, seductive, not to be messed with. Nick Hammond- handsome, suave, lethal, going to prison. Together, they are the Mystery Society. They are rich, resourceful, refined, determined to uncover the paranormal secrets of the world's underbelly... and in need of new recruits. A ghoul named Secret Skull, two twin girls Nick sprung from Area 51, and a robot with the brain of Jules Verne are up for the job. If the burgeoning team can espace the government baddies they've ticked off, reverse the smear campaign waged against Nick, and uncover the secrets of the twins' powers, they just might have time to chase down leads for their first case- finding the missing skull of Edgar Allan Poe.… (más)

Not a ton of depth in the plot, but this was a fun romp with a great sense of humor and fantastic artwork. I'd love to read more about this crew. ( )

Came for Fiona Staples' art, stayed for Fiona Staples' art.

The writing pales in comparison. ( )

I read this because it was available on Kindle Unlimited. It’s a story about a team of misfit heroes who get vilified as criminals. I liked the art, but I’ve always been a fan of Fiona Staples, and some of the character concepts are weird in a fun way. Unfortunately, this felt like the first volume in an apparently canceled series that never got past the setup. ( )

If you’re looking for a quick, action-packed, funny comic about a secret society with some super-hero/mutant-esque characters, then this is it. Mystery Society doesn’t take itself too seriously. It’s a high-tech, low stakes, easy to enjoy little romp about a husband and wife who start a team to track down paranormal secrets. There’s a bit of the found-family theme here too.

Come for the mystery, stay for Secret Skull and Verne. Seriously, I would love a Secret Skull spinoff series. I would love this comic as a Netflix series actually, but only if they did it right! No stupid CGI mask for Secret Skull.

As usual, I love Staples’s work and that’s the main reason I wanted to read this, though I do love the oddball group with various skills and powers coming together to fight crime/solve mysteries/fight the patriarchy, etc. Sadly there seems to only be this one volume comprised of five issues. I really wish there were more! ( )

1.5 stars, rounded down.

Not much to say about this one, except "Avoid it".

Edit: Actually, I'll say a little bit more. If you are looking for a (very) cheap knock-off/modern retelling of Alan Moore's [b:The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Vol. 1|297627|The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Vol. 1|Alan Moore|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1327894724s/297627.jpg|797], then this graphic novel is right up your alley. I'm not sure if author Steve Niles intended that, or if he even knew what he was going for (modern-age steampunk?) as he wrote this, but it didn't really work for me at all. The artwork was sort of *bleh*, too. ( )
