Customer Reviews
User popularity level:  out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Good- Artwork Inconsistant
Noble Causes: In Sickness and in health is a romantic soap opera starring: you guessed it- super heroes! The primary romance is the romance between Race- and plain Jane bookstore owner Liz Donnelly. Add a few classic soap opera twists, including a blacksheep brother, a cheating spouse and a mystery baby and you have Noble Causes.

I enjoyed the story for the most part, although to be honest it was somewhat light. What I didn't like was the art. At times it was well drawn...Other times the art looked like the scrawling of a ten year old. Some characters were hardly recognizable from story to story- you'd think the artist had no reference to work from.

Still the story was fun, and the concept cool. Worth reading, but the artwork lacks consistancy which cost this story a star.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Yeah, there's some soap opera, but I really like this series
This series is about the dysfunctional superhero celebrity family of the Nobles. It begins when Liz, a normal woman, is going to marry into the family...then all kinds of drama begins. There are a lot of family and relationship issues going on in this series, and, yes, it may seem soap opera-ish to some. But ultimately it's a fun comic book that hasn't gained as much popularity as it deserves. I actually want to read the rest of the series after having read this trade paperback. It has drama, it has superheroes, it has comedy, it has action, it has romance...



Rated by buyers 2 out of 5 stars - Heroes meet soap opera�Soap Opera wins!
A "normal" woman marries into the Noble family, the world's most famous family of superheroes and complications ensue. Jay Faerber works in all the soap opera conceits, the cheating spouses, surprise pregnancies, murderous family members, and even that old SF stand by, the brain transplant. While Faerber's stated goal is to take a different look at the genre, he really only succeeds in transferring it to the realm of daytime dramas. With art by group of raw talents, NOBLE CAUSES is not so much different as it is derivative.
