"Jeremy Zimmerman's Girl‘s Night Out wasn’t winning me over at the beginning. I mean, a rich, early 20th century, bachelor who fights crime on the side, and his faithful companion – schooled in Eastern martial arts – who wears a suit and and a little mask, just around the eyes? C'mon, who hasn’t seen the Green Hornet before? But Zimmerman's companion is a woman, and just after the requisite 'fight scene with thugs' our heros discover nearly naked aliens. I'm pretty sure that never happened to Kato. What follows next is a thoroughly enjoyable tale of misbegotten technology and daring rescues. As far as I’m concerned, this is where [Cobalt City Timeslip] really gets started. Girl's Night Out is most likely telling more of a story started in another installment, but it reads as a stand-alone. The characters have a history, a reason for what they’re doing in the present, and a lead into a possible future."
