The cover smacks of Elfquest. Look at the artwork and pose of Shanna. Now for the story. The lead story is very week. It was probably meant to be a bonding point story for Kevin & Shanna. It just drags and plods to get to that point. After reading this book, I beleive the artwork is what kept the CCA off this book. There are several panels where we see Shanna's "cheeks". Overall not worth reading, unless you atre a die-hard Ka-Zar reader.
