★★★★☆ (4/5)

QUICK REVIEW: What Greg and Fake have done by bootstrapping the 'Santos Sister' comic series by creating an old-school comic complete with newsprint and homages to the classic Archie gang has been beyond remarkable. They even sell ads that appear in the comic adding to the nostalgic look and feel of comics of another era. But is the comic, good? The answer is a resounding yes!

With a nod to the classic Archie Comics house style and featuring a core group of young people in varying misadventures, 'Santos Sisters' is a charming and funny comedic series that finds a balance between wholesome and edgy. The different short stories will usually find the titular heroes, Ambar and Alana, navigating their regular lives with their superhero duties when called upon. Whether it's tracking down car thieves, fighting a sentient cinnamon roll monster, or simply unwisely taking a  hallucinogenic, the Santos Sisters are ready for anything. Greg and Fake are indie comics personified and deserve your support.
