Nancy who? Goldie Vance is on the case! The adventures of the teen sleuth continue in this second volume of the hit comic book series.
The adventures of Goldie Vance, teen super sleuth, continue in the second volume of this hit comic adventure. Collects issues #5-8 of the series.
Sixteen-year-old Marigold “Goldie” Vance lives at a Florida resort with her dad, who manages the place. Her mom, who divorced her dad years ago, works as a live mermaid at a club downtown. Goldie has an insatiable curiosity, which explains her dream to one day become the hotel’s in-house detective. When Charles, the current detective, encounters a case he can’t crack, he agrees to mentor Goldie in exchange for her help solving the mystery.
Eisner Award-winning writer Hope Larson (A Wrinkle in Time: The Graphic Novel) and artist Brittney Williams (Patsy Walker, A.K.A Hellcat!) present the newest gal sleuth on the block with Goldie Vance, an exciting, whodunnit adventure.
I love this series!! Goldie is a whip smart firecracker, Diane is a rock and roll doll, and Cheryl is a geeky astronaut in the making. The latter two help balance Goldie's boundless curiosity, and feet first stubbornness.
We learn more about Walt this go around and he seems to fit in much better. We also see more of Goldie's mom and I'm so glad! I was worried with the first installment it'd be all busy Dad and absent Mom.
I so appreciate each installment being a fully encapsulated mystery. I like comics, but I have problems accepting cliffhangers and waiting.
My favorite quote:
