"Harris demonstrates that he understands comics; Alecto explores shades of morality the way more complex superhero comics-Watchmen, The Dark Knight Returns, and so on-do. And the superpowers seem cool on Annex's small stage (and no doubt meager budget)... The cast is admirably dedicated to making a spandex wardrobe look like a credible life choice... Alecto is a complex joyride."-The Stranger"Annex brings the comic book world to life in a comedic mix of hero/villain personas, electrifying fight scenes, clever social satire, and crafty stage magic... From the Barbie doll stunt doubles to the mock superhero product endorsements, this play does not take itself too seriously while remaining a quality spoof on our notion of superheroes and the childhood fantasy of becoming one... It's been a while since I have loved theater this much or laughed that hard."
