selenakIn the ongoing process of catching up with what I missed during the book fair, I bring you recs from the fabulous ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
heroines_fest, aka the one about comic book women:
Solutions for better living: in whichlikeadeuce writes curtainfic for Jessica Jones, Carol Danvers and friends, and it is fantastic. Complete with robots attacking Ikea. And too many one liners to quote. I love it to bits.
Reason to believe: in which two of my favourite characters Joss Whedon contributed to the Marvelverse, Hisako Ichiki and Abigail Brand, have a chat post-Breakworld and pre-Secret Invasion. Hisako's doubts and questions as well as Brand's no-nonsense manner are rendered perfectly.
If the world stops spinning: one of the many great things about X-Men: First Class was the retcon of teenage Jean Grey and Wanda Maximoff, the doomed ladies of the Marvelverse, having a passionate friendship. It's simultanously delightful, a breath of fresh air and touching if you remember what life has in store for them. This story captures them at their transition to adulthood and does both of them justice.
