I'm gonna guess your silence is because you googled her.

Dude, I just realized why Professor X's hover chair is so big. It's also secretly a hover toilet. See how Storm, Cyclops, and Wolverine are all awkwardly looking away? The Prof thinks he's slick but they can smell it.

 DMZ Read the first five issues and this bitch is kind of a monster. There hasn't been much of any backstory yet so all I've got is bare bones: in the near(ish) future, America is in the midst of a new civil war between the United States of America and the secessionist Free States of America and New York has become a battleground with the FSA army sitting on the Jersey side of the Hudson and the USA on the New York side, with the island of Manhattan a bombed out no man's land in-between which has descended into lawless barbarism after an indeterminate number of years with little to no contact or aid from the outside world. We don't know anything else about this world: the year, other areas of conflict, state of each nation, who's winning, what their governments are like, nothing no nada. Just that it sucks ass to be in Manhattan. We view this world through the eyes of Matty Roth, a sheltered kid going into a journalism internship with absolutely no idea that he is to be immediately put on a helicopter with another reporter as the very first news crew to enter Manhattan since the fighting began. **** happens and he becomes stranded in the DMZ alone to fulfill his mission to tell the stories of the civilian survivors still on the island. Some issues are more episodic, giving us small but fascinating glimpses into the hellish, alien, but very human world that has risen from the chaos, where each block is its own world, while others are more extended arcs that deal with conflicts involving the two armies breathing down Manhattan's neck, ready to rain indiscriminate hellfire down on whatever they deem as even a potential threat, civilians be damned. DMZ is basically the story of Stalingrad transplanted to America to give the (Murican) reader a visceral idea of how much they might not want war to be a thing. No punches are pulled and everyone ends up with at least a light shit stain in their drawers. The US is... the US, the DMZ survivors can be as helpful as they can be murderous (even on the same block), and even Matt has his moments of severely ****ing up. It's a series that could very easily become nihilistic if it weren't grounded in finding the small slivers of humanity underneath the filth of war, showing that though humankind are capable of horrors beyond imagining, two snipers on opposite sides of hell can still write love notes to each other that they read with their rifle scopes. Yeah, that happened. It was awesome. Like this comic. ****ing read it already.
