Rezensionen / Stimmen
"The feisty French comic book siren Barbarella, who made her debut in 1962, was ahead of her time-but also of it." * The New York Times * "[T]he comics version of Barbarella resonates as an early example of the fully empowered female comics protagonist." * Publishers Weekly * "It's as close as English-language readers will get to the 'humor and the expression of liberty' that Forest desired." * Comics Journal *
