Managed to post a new review, it's been a while since I've had time to both read comics and then write a review. This isn't the harshest review I've ever written, but I suppose it's up there. When I write something that's not necessarily favorable, it's about me wanting the storytellers to kick it up a notch, take more responsibility for the ideas and not leave things half-baked or ill-considered. The Clockwork Girl has lots of potential and as such I found it maybe more disappointing than someone else might have. Frankly, the problems I had with this comic are common in comics that don't have an editor who is different from the writer/artist. Editors are important! And I'm not just saying that because I'm an editor of ComicCritique.Com. I'm saying that because all storytellers in any medium for public consumption need someone who is a bit harsh, someone who can ask something more of the storytellers, to demand something greater.

Here's the review:
