A group of us were discussing the televised version of No 1. Ladies' Detective Agency last night at dinner, and one of the only quibbles I have with that is that Anika Noni Rose plays the plain jane secretary/assistant detective who must get by on her wits not her looks. Naturally, it's Ugly Betty styles plain and unattractive because she's wearing glasses and dresses a bit off. It's a minor quibble, but one thinks there should be a law against Disney Princesses playing plain jane roles in glasses!
Which comic books did you file and which ones did you read?
