Mix Chuck and Alias and you get Frenemy of the State #1.  The new comic book series by Rashinda Jones (the beauty from Parks and Recreation), Christina Weir and Nunzio DeFilippis is fun and entertaining and a pleasant surprise.

Ariana Von Holmberg is an heiress and the latest recruit to the C.I.A.  She knows her way around a computer and her first mission is to retrieve something from her frenemie’s father.

Rashida Jones, Christine Weir, & Nunzio Defilippis’ new series FRENEMY OF THE STATE #1. Featuring the amazing artwork of Jeff Wamester the new series kicks off this Wednesday 5/12/2010. It’s action/comedy at it’s finest when socialite Ariana Von Holmberg becomes the CIA’s new secret weapon!

The series is perfect for young women looking for a tough and smart female lead who can kick some but and give some sass.  This is La Femme Nakita/Point of No Return without the violence and drugs, so much more appropriate for a younger set.

It’s fun and entertaining and perfect for me to give to my nieces to read when they grow up and become teenagers.  But I think boys and girls alike will enjoy it.  If you’re looking for some different entertainment with a female lead, give this series a try.

Check out the break to find out what we think in greater detail.
