Grrl Power
is a webcomic by Dave Barrack about a superheroine who works in a comic shop.
Sydney Scoville Jr. lives in a world where superhumans have finally revealed themselves to the public. There was no public accident or major incident; one day all the evidence added up and it was impossible to deny it any longer. People aren't quite used to the idea of superheroes yet, but they're getting there, and the fact that all superhumans are ridiculously photogenic likely won't hurt.
At least, most supers are ridiculously photogenic. In a world where the average superhero is over six foot, has zero percent body fat, and the ladies have D-cup chests, Sydney is short, flat-chested, and angry about it. She's also sarcastic, caustic, a huge nerd, and is bonded to seven mysterious orbs that float over her head and give her superpowers. After foiling a bank robbery (or being nearby when the strongest super in the world foils a bank robbery), Sydney is invited to reveal her powers and join ARCHON, the new American super-response team.
Sydney quickly becomes a unique asset to the team, her encyclopedic knowledge of superhero tropes making her surprisingly adept at navigating this new world she finds herself in. While working with a very quirky group that includes a demonic succubus who wishes Sydney would stop being such a prude, a single-minded harem of beautiful woman (yes, singular), and the gold-skinned superheroine who must manage them all without going insane from their hijinks, Sydney discovers ways to balance her new life, her old life, and her hobbies, all while saving the world.
Currently updates Mondays and Thursdays. Not to be confused with the Supergirl storyline Girl Power.
