I think that Invisibles as a whole is wildly inconsistent -- some of it is really fabulous, some of it a hopeless mess. "Apocalypstick" is a definite high point, as is Fanny's ultimate defeat of Quimper in "Kissing Mister Quimper" (which I found rather cathartic). I also liked her coming to terms with Dane to win the Hand of Glory.
I give Morrison some credit for not desexualizing Fanny; given the basic action-adventure underpinnings, I wouldn't have been surprised if the only hints of Fanny as a sexual being had been Dane's discomfort with her.
