Bitch Planet: Triple Feature, Vol. 1 (Bitch Planet (Collected Editions)) 144 pages
This volume of 15 stories has a nice variety of artists, although I didn't feel like I was connecting to the stories as much as I did to the first Bitch Planet book. I don't mind completely independent stories, but because they're so short, I just wasn't hooked in the same way. There isn't any advancement of the main story from the first book, although you get a sense of how different people have been affected by their society.
They all carry the same kind of satirical social commentary, which is the consistent thread here. The one thing I thought was fun was showing photos of women cosplaying in red overalls (you'll get this if you've read these stories). It was a nice way to break up the stories.
