Here is the whole review for those of you who don't want to click on the link:
NECESSARY EVIL 1&2-
Comparisons to HARRY POTTER are inevitable, but in this case it is a compliment. Just as J.K.Rowling embraced the genre of fantasy and wizardry for her series of books, writer Joshua Williamson does the same for super-villainy as a pair of orphaned teens are enrolled in a school for super-villains. This is early in the series, so the characters are just being developed, but the standouts so far in this series are the scenes with the kids taking part in super-villainy classes such as Mystic Weapons, Avoiding the Forensic Experts, and Understanding Economics: How to Make Your Stolen Money Work For You. Sure kids in a fantastical school may be a cliché, but this series has imagination and solid storytelling on its side. Plus it’s got some pretty nice art from Marcus L. Harris & Vincente Navarrete which is reminiscent of Todd Nauck, who coincidentally provides the covers to this series. This one’s oozing with fun teenage angst and education super-villain style. Fans of THE FRESHMEN comic and movies like HARRY POTTER and SKY HIGH shouldn’t miss this one. -AMBUSH BUG!
