During the 1990s there was a glut of what were termed 'bad girl' comics, many of which became very collectible. Some of these comics were actually quite good. Lumped in with the rest - unfairly - was Dawn ... However, Dawn wasn't strictly a "bad girl" book. The character was a goddess and didn't get involved with violence herself. But what set these books apart was the incredible draftmanship of Joseph Linsner. Eventually, larger companies like Image started trying to get into bad girl comics, but the ship had already sailed and only the quality stuff, like Dawn, is still being published .
     
Crypt of Dawn 2 (1997)



The very impressive artwork of Linsner is the key selling point of the Dawn books, but he's proven himself to be a pretty good writer too ...
  Dawn: Devil's Halo(1997)



Not a mistake, the book was published this way, with no logo or cover lines cluttering up the admittedly very sexy art.
  Danger Girl 2 (1998)



Danger Girl was a light hearted romp and this cover brings to mind the poster for the movie American Beauty.
