writer: S.D. Lockhart / artist: Patibut ‘Narm’ Preeyawongsakul / Nevo Digital How did I come across Starpunch Girl #1? I was browsing the ComiXology site and happened to look upon the cover image of Starpunch Girl that’s posted above for your leisure. I deduced three things: 1) It’s VERY bright. VERY Colorful. There’s A LOT going on.[icon_check] 2) It’s simply GORGEOUS to look at. [icon_check] 3) It has a girl on it and a “girl” in the title.[icon_check] *Fiona Voice* Sooooooo. yeah, dude! I bought it! [dropcap1]O[/dropcap1]riginally a webcomic, Starpunch Girl is the story of a “mysterious cosmic being” who wields the power of stars in her hands. She can destroy life and she can create it. She can showcase compassion and she can feel pain. Her hair sports the most unique dye job that I’ve ever seen and she’s surely on my top list of most visually striking characters I’ve ever seen. And while I still don’t have all the backstory on her, she’s a cosmic being that’s housed in the body of an adolescent girl. Pow. Right in the kisser. We’re quickly introduced to our titular character here with a great feat of her strength the first couple pages and through the devastating carnage we see some glorious artwork. Just a beautifully illustrated comic that speaks volumes of the artist, Preeyawongsakul, better known as “Narm,” and his talent. (Check out his deviant art page–you won’t be disappointed) The flow of the story really works, too. Kudos to writer, no, writers S.D. Lockhart…
