In 2021, an explosively successful Kickstarter campaign helped writer Mat Groom (Marvel Comics’ ULTRAMAN and Image’s ULTRAMASSIVE) and artist Erica D’Urso (CAPTAIN MARVEL and XENA: WARRIOR PRINCESS) deliver the 125-page graphic novel INFERNO GIRL RED: BOOK ONE–– which combined the high school super-heroic drama of INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE with the dynamic storytelling and world-building of Japanese tokusatsu superheroes, and the intrigue and relationship drama of British boarding school fiction. Now, they’re returning to Kickstarter to tell the next chapter in the story of legendary hero INFERNO GIRL RED in INFERNO GIRL RED: BOOK TWO. Groom and D’Urso will be joined by the entire original creative team, including colorist Igor Monti (RADIANT BLACK, DEEP CUTS), letterer Becca Carey (ROGUE SUN, REDLANDS), editor Kyle Higgins (RADIANT BLACK, NIGHTWING, MIGHTY MORPHIN POWER RANGERS) and design agency FOR THE PEOPLE. The new campaign invites readers into the world already loved by thousands, with an opportunity to access both INFERNO GIRL RED: BOOK ONE and BOOK TWO in either digital or deluxe, oversized hardcover forms.
When her new home of Apex City was ripped out of existence and cast into darkness, Cássia Costa had to embrace an ancient power to become the legendary hero INFERNO GIRL RED. She rose to the challenge, pushing herself farther than she ever thought possible – but though Cássia protected the city from its first major threat, it cost her dearly. Now, still reeling from a heartbreaking loss, Cássia must forge a relationship with a new mentor, and expand an unlikely team – because the consequences of her previous “victory” have come back to haunt her, and a villainous duo is on the rise! A fraught potential romance beckons, a long-held secret threatens to be revealed, and an unimaginable choice could see Apex City left defenseless! Can Cássia navigate it all… or even survive it all?
The Kickstarter edition of INFERNO GIRL RED: BOOK TWO will be the perfect accompaniment to the Kickstarter edition of BOOK ONE, with the same oversized, deluxe hardcover format, and a new, exclusive Kickstarter-only cover with Kickstarter exclusive behind-the-scenes materials. This edition will feature 120 pages of story (with behind-the-scenes materials and informational pages additional to this page count).
