If there are any downsides to Primer, it's that some of the jokes caused me to cringe. The story itself manages to be heartwarming and even devastating at times, showing Ashley's insecurities and need to act out. Primer embraces the big explosion of fun you expect from animated cartoons, but packed into one cohesive comic book. If you pick up a book about paint that gives you superpowers, you expect the paint to look cool and feel like a big part of the story- on that point, it definitely delivers. Every page is exploding with vibrant colours and dynamic characters. It's really such a wonderful and colourful book. Ashley stumbles upon her scientist foster mother's superpower-giving-body paints, Ashley becomes a superhero of her very own! She's constantly going in and out of the foster system while her father is locked away in prison when she's finally adopted by two loving foster parents who want to encourage her free spirit and love of art. Primer is an incredible OGN starring a young middle school girl named Ashley.
