Takes what should be an interesting character and just drowns her in writing that is pure dreck, so choppy and stupid it feels like pages must be missing.
It's the sort of dumb writing that people think of when they think of comics: a high school student is given powers and is immediately pulled into a shadow war between two secret societies, one good and one evil. Anya Corazon wants to have a secret identity, but she lets the giant and distinct tattoo that is the mark of her power show on her arm both at her Brooklyn high school and when she's running around in her hero guise. And she seems to mistake her superhero code name for a credit card security question as she adopts her mother's maiden name of Araña. A super-powered assassin shows up who is about her age and tries to kill her one night, and then the next day a new transfer student shows up in her classroom, and hey isn't that . . . ? Ugh.
So much is left unexplained or unexplored, but I have no desire to find out more at this point. ( )

Well, Mama, I did it. I've accepted my destiny as hunter. Now there's just one more thing I need to know . . . "The bloodline of the hunter ran through your mother down to you, Anya." Did you know this would happen?
