I love the Elcor forms of expression, though I suspect that comes from the game. Regardless, there's little point in choosing a woman protagonist - even one who's a good fighter - if so much of the action is going to revolve around her being leered at and propositioned and arranged in provocative poses as she gets grabbed from behind.

Nice biotic effects. Realy feel like you are in their scummy reality

[Viktor Malych · Rating 1 out of 5]

Short comic filling in some events before Mass Effect 2. Chose Liara as the protagonist, but instead of her cool and strong character from the games, she's used for ogling and sexual harassment. Her character is also written differently and a lot worse than the games. I'm shocked it's the same lead writer who did the games, maybe the cover lied to me, or they didn't write it and their name is just used, or they're just not as good as I thought.
