Geek-Girl 'Tights 'n' Capes' Coming Soon!

Geek-Girl is going to be fronting a Super-Team, backed by (morally dubious) entrepreneur Johnny Carlyle - but as the team are coming together, things take an unexpected turn... So Ruby Kaye (a.k.a Geek-Girl), BFF Summer and new team-mate The Minger - now getting a night off - meet Ruby and Summer's (mean) girl friends at an outlandish, fancy-dress club nite - themed on Seinfeld's-alternative-xmas, Festivus. Ruby wants to go incognito, and Summer gets to go in the Geek-Girl costume and glasses - with powers!

But meanwhile, a guy with red skin and his young female associate are tailing them, someone is contacting the dead, Johnny Carlyle's right-hand man Digger Mensch is having conflict with his super-villain pals 'cos of being involved with the super-team - and there's the introduction of Cabra Cini: Voodoo Junkie Hitwoman!

All coming to the new Geek-Girl 2-Part Story Arc 'Tights 'n' Capes' in Geek-Girl #6 & #7 - releasing September 9 and 23!

I've referenced a number of times how Grant Morrison's run on Doom Patrol is my greatest influence, and I'm gonna be bringing it in this arc. I came up with Cabra and her debut scene by thinking in stream-of-consciousness 'weird mode;' it's one of my favorite scenes I've written, but I needed an ongoing series for it in order to fit the arc that follows for her character... This is where that begins! And if you're not familiar with Cabra Cini I'm excited for you to meet her in the pages of Geek-Girl, where she will play a major role!

My Doom Patrol/weirdness influence also comes into play in 'Tights 'n' Capes' with the introduction of the enigmatic Teyla...

...who appears to be stalking Geek-Girl. And look out for nods to DP fan favorite characters Danny the Street and Flex Mentallo (as a clubber fancy-dresses as him) - plus more weirdness!
