Title: The White Queen has a history
Review: "Emma Frost: Higher Learning" is a digest-sized collection of the soap opera that was young Emma's life, long before she became the White Queen, a busty telepath, member of the Hellfire Club and frequent bane and occasional ally to the X-Men. Raised in extreme wealth by a selfish, domineering father and a largely vacant mother, Emma and her problematic siblings never had a normal life. A lack of friends at her private academy made life even worse. But then Emma started suffering headaches and nosebleeds, and she seemed to know what people around her were thinking...."Higher Learning" is geared more toward a young-adult audience and will likely appeal more to young women than men. Still, it's an interesting story that adds new dimensions to an otherwise stale character. Karl Bollers' richly layered storytelling and Randy Green's solid art make for an attractive package that any comics reader can enjoy.by Tom Knapp, Rambles.(n e t) editor
