**** (out of five)

Sylvia Mark is a blonde teenage girl who is extremely strong and seems to have this deep connection to the supernatural.
While your mind is drifting to inevitable comparison between Sylvia and Buffy The Vampire Slayer, there are plenty of differences, which make the star of 100 Girls stand on her own.
This collection of the first four issues of 100 Girls sees Sylvia slowly piecing together her new-found mysterious past and discovering there are other girls out there who look and sound a lot like her.
Meanwhile, the head of the secret laboratory that cloned Sylvia and 99 other girls in an effort to create metahumans is trying feverishly to find her and three other missing girls.
Just one of the fresh new books from Vancouver-based Arcana Studios, 100 Girls is imaginative and interesting.
The highly original art of Adam Gallardo and sharp story courtesy of Todd Demong have the makings of a fine ongoing series.
