Superhero Nerd: A review of Geek-Girl #1
Sam Johnson’s Geek-Girl has been on my radar for a little while, at least from last year when Geek Native previewed Voodoo Junkie Hitwoman: Cabra Cini (rated as: hopeful) but the author himself has been getting mentions on the site since 2014 in conjunction with Free Comic Book Day.
