Rocking dog tags and a green army jacket, Charlie has your typical aloofness about her–whether it’s interacting with overtly peppy students or getting frustrated at her sister. Set in the Georgia O’Keeffe College of Arts and Subtle Dramatics, The Avant-Guards #1 starts predictably at the first day of school with Charlie as your not-exactly-happy-go-lucky transfer student. What followed in the next 20 pages was a delightful opening that started Carly Usdin’s character study of the principle lead: Charlie Bravo (and yes, they’ve heard the 10-4 joke before). So when I saw The Avant-Guards #1 I felt my eyes widen, and I immediately grabbed the wonderfully retro cover illustrated by Noah Hayes and colored by Rebecca Nalty. I know we’ve talked about this before, but I don’t care much for “sports.” I do care a lot about sports pop culture media. Writer: Carly Usdin / Artist: Noah Hayes, Rebecca Nalty / Boom! Studios
