Summary: GoGirl! Trade Paperback
Review: Go,Girl!,a series of ongoing comics by writer Trina Robbins and artist Anne Timmons is one that captivates a readership easily .

The writing is interesting,attention holding,and there is the recipe of writing every reader needs. An individual,original ,issue has the soap opera hook that shouts out"To be continued" without the words.

The art fits like a glove as an asset to the storyline,and at times could probably tell the story alone.

The trade paperback is a compilation of the 5 individual comics plus 2 more along with some pinups done by other people .

It makes a nice gift ,too!

Summary: go girl gets me and neighbor's kids
Review: I had been planning to show Go Girl to a neighbor's 12 yr old daughter and recently had the oportunity to do so. She loved it! She now feels that a girl can do anything she's capable of. Her mom says the story has helped her daughter's self esteem and they both look foward to upcoming issues of Go Girl! I hope we can both meet Anne and Trina at a future comic book convention here in the rose city!
Thank you,
DCL

Summary: Outstanding Girl SuperHero!
Review: Robbins/Timmons book, GoGirl is just the tonic for your budding superstar daughter! I found this book fun, the artwork terrific, and amidst all the super shennagans are found some very realistic adolescent conditions that all young girls regardless of their super-strengths are bound to encounter!: peer pressure, role-modeling, parent-child relations, self-image, the whole gamut, kind of like a modern day Nancy Drew who can FLY! Oh, and by-the-way, did I tell you she's carrying on her MOTHER's fine superheroine tradition? Go figure. Go get this book. Go now. Do not pass go and do not pass this one by. Your kid will love it. Mine did.

Summary: Just what GIRLS needed!
Review: This comic book series and now the paperback version is just what girls the world over needed! Realistic body images of young teen girls and reasonable adolescent ideas about their world. I'm really pleased with what I've read from Trina Robbins. She's retained the knowledge and experience from raising her own daughter and put it into her storylines so well! I see myself with my own 2 daughters in some of what Lindsay says to her mom in some of the episodes! It's so uncanny! And the artwork from Anne Timmons is exceptional! Her capture of an 'Eartha Kitt' version of the catwoman in issue #5 was so delightfully humorous, it brought us parents into the enjoyment of these stories! I wish more parents knew about this great series for their daughters and I plan on trying my best to spread the word. Take a copy of this comic book to your child's school and introduce it to some of your favorite teachers so they can show it to their female students and maybe even the boys will enjoy it!
My 15-yr-old daughter is also enjoying reading the stories about Lindsay and perusing the artwork, and she gets a real kick out of the paperdolls and costumes done on the back cover! She's even tried her own hand at drawing 'Go Girl!'

When can we see issue #6?

Summary: Ann and Trina: You Go, Girls!
Review: What a wonderful contribution to the genre: a girl-friendly superhero comic with a terrific heroine (with a Super Mom--in every sense of the word), fine story lines, and wonderful illustrations! The fashion pages remind of the Katy Keene comics I loved as a girl. When my 11-year-old daughter read this (in a single sitting), she demanded to know when a second volume would come out! Ann and Trina--go girls!
