Comments: Gigi comes out of her apartment and literally runs into a gorgeous woman. 
  Now Gigi and her friends run to see the Lovely Trio fighting. The Trio it turns out are only lovely on the outside. They have a sinister plan for being on this planet. 
  The art is done in a cartoon all ages style. The alien creatures have a nice soft subdued look to them. The coloring enhances that as well. The story is slow to get started. Once it does it shows aside of one of the Lovely Trio that is not meant to be seen at least not yet. Where will this comic go next? More fighting, more romance and cool looking aliens. 
  Gigi and her friend are not off to outer space but they are off to somewhere else. Gigi is one cool girl and she has just begun the adventure of a lifetime.

Comments: It is revealed in this issue Gigi's friend is also her brother-in-law. They now find themselves on a spaceship full of different aliens. 
  This issue does fill you in on what is going on. You will know who the good and bad guys are. The Lovely Trio a threesome of super-heroes on Earth are not at all what they seem. 
  Gigi has fallen for Mai a shapechanging alien and vice versa. These two go so well together. Now this brother-in-law Shawn is portrayed as such a great guy. To bad about the monster that grabs him.
  The Lovely Trio need to be a focus in an issue soon as they are the main villains here. They are planetary murderers. 
  The use of colors is great and especially on the alien Mia. The pinks look so beautiful on her alien form which is also done as a big cuddly creature. 
  Gigi and her adventures are starting to take off and so is the danger.

Comments: You will have a hard time following what is going on here especially if you have not read the previous issues. Even if you have you will still find it hard to figure out what is going on. 
  So a group of three aliens are posing as super-heroes just for the fun of it while waiting to eat lots and lots of humans. Than they will be off to feed on another planet. Why? Such powerful beings you would think could find something better to do with their time. 
  Mia plays a big part in this issue and she even gets to fight. During that fight things do get explosive. You are left with a cliffhanger ending it just needed more to it. Knowing the characters better would have helped.
  All of the characters need to be gotten into more so you know more about them and feel more towards them so you care about what happens to them. Even the evil aliens who do not come across as that evil it would be great to know more about their pasts and how they got to where they are now. 
  Mia and Gigi though do make for a cute burgeoning couple. They are so cute together.
