a Stiletto in space

Stiletto #1
Created, Written & Illustrated by John B. Lai
Published by Ultimate Comics Group

The fully stacked red-haired wonder, Stiletto, is an intergalactic stripper. As in, this is strictly an adults-only title, but a fun one at that. Lighthearted cheesecake with a penchant for scrounging up trouble, Stiletto is a girl who seems able to handle herself in any given situation, but what she wants most is to just find her way back home.

In this new and hopefully ongoing series, Lai (whose work I have followed for awhile, since I interviewed the man almost a year back) unleashes a dynamo of a heroine in Stiletto. Giving us a science fiction comedy with tongue firmly in cheek, we meet the buxom lady and her pet pup Rigby, who can change forms into the kind of doggie one would rather not deprive of treats. Dealing with pervs at one club, the two flee hoping to score some coordinates from a pair of nutty alien techs. Wackiness ensues, full-on.

Lai is Editor In Chief of the UCG line, their lead writer as well as handling an increasing amount of the lettering and colouring himself in the books. With Stiletto, he fully unleashes himself, debuting full line art that shows true photoshop savvy while coming across with a playful, digital look. His lady is sexy, his aliens are kooky, and his exploding planets are exploding planets. He has really cut loose his inhibitions on this book, obviously having a blast with the raunchy humor and leftfield scenarios. Here's hoping the party never stops.

Issue one is out now, and I hear iss two will follow shortly. If you are looking for a light read, a welcome escape via nipple plenitudes, this comic is worth your dime, worth your time. Of course, although there are no outright sex scenes, there is strong enough innuendo to warrant reader caution. Naughty words, too.
So you just know I liked this one.
