This was......fine. A very weak story that led me to believe the author just really wanted to draw boobs.

a fine enough story but felt quite rushed and all over the place at times. didnt quite get enough of the friendships and relationships in this story to fully understand them.

In this fantastic over-the-top heist comic, two theives, Alexandra and Carole take the most high-risk jobs, stealing treasured French paintings, and pull them off with a combined expertise and devil-may-care attitude, equal parts badasses and fuckups. If it were a movie, it would somehow have to be a collaboration between Wes Anderson (with his design sense, Francophilia, and offbeat humor) and Catherine Bigelow (DGAF protagonists, insane set pieces).

I loved it and can't wait to dive into the sequel.
