Occasionally funny but frequently gross. The treatment of women here is unpleasant.Tom Strong is a brilliantly well-done series, but this set of side yarns just don't quite hold up. Most of the issues consist of, first, a Tom Strong story. These are almost all good, and done in an array of styles. Second, a "Jenni Future" story.

No pensaba ratear el tomo hasta no releerme todas y cada una de las historias cortas que incluye. Pero como en la segunda pasada (en algunos casos, hasta tercera) me di cuenta de que recordaba bastante bien las historias y sus dibujos (tanto los que disfruté como Jonni Future como los que sufrí como el joven Tom Strong), así que doy por leído este entretenido tomo. No es lo mejor de la línea ABC pero no me arrepiento de su compra, así que ahora me lanzo a la caza de los que me faltan para tener
Bland stories.
