Praise for Empowered:
“Adam Warren continues to beat the odds and persists in getting better and better with his spicy superhero romp.”— Popdose.com
“A sort of R-rated sitcom exploring geek culture from the inside out, full of exploitative, titillating imagery, but it also features the healthiest and the most realistic romantic relationship in any comic book featuring capes and masks.”— Las Vegas Weekly
“How can it be that I, a young feminist woman fed up with sexist superhero tropes, love Empowered?”—Comics Alliance
