The beginning of Ruby Kaye’s New
Direction fronting a Super-Team is now available, remastered, with 12
pages of New Material, in the Geek-Girl #5 Deluxe Edition with cover by Sun Khamunaki (Lady Death, Red Sonja); and, releasing simultaneously, Geek-Girl: Incoming features just the new material from this.
We’re going to be introducing two new characters coming to the Geek-Girl
series as Ruby’s Super-Team embarks on their adventures. Mean Girl – a
crooked valley girl with super-tech – is setting herself up to
potentially be a nemesis for GG; and Pete the Pimp is set to play a
significant role in Summer’s life!
That doesn’t mean Summer will be turning to prostitution :) Ruby’s BFF Summer is basically in love with the whole Ruby-being-a-Superheroine thing, and she desperately wants something like it for herself… This ambition is set to take her down some dark alleys, among which, the shady Pete ‘The Pimp’ Stenson resides… and he has a connection to a source of super-powers…
Stenson features in a 7-Page tie-in strip illustrated by Meisha Mimotofu, colored by regular Geek-Girl series colorist Chunlin Zhao, alongside a preview of Mean Girl’s introduction, and a peek inside the Super-Team’s HQ. There’s a lot about the HQ that Ruby and her team-mates aren’t aware of; Grant Morrison’s out-there run on Doom Patrol is my biggest influence, and that’s going to play a part in the weirdness that inhabits this place…

Meanwhile, Mean Girl is a character who,
with her, ‘like, totally-Valley-Girl-speak?’ is a character that’s great
fun to write, but is also going to present a very serious threat to
GG’s Team, and the Geek-Girl #5 Deluxe Edition is a great place to jump on board the Geek-Girl series for what’s to come…
Geek-Girl #5 Deluxe Edition - and Ltd ‘Striking’ Variant – with covers by Sun Khamunaki, and Geek-Girl: Incoming, featuring the new material from these, are available now at www.geekgirlcomics.com or at Comixology (for Digital Editions) and eBay via the buttons below.
