The life of a teenager can be challenging to say the least. After relocating to Apex City with her mom, Cássia Costa must take on a new school, new friends, and new…super powers? Adjusting to a new prestigious school is hard enough, but when an ancient cult pulls the city into another dimension, things will get…complicated for our hero. Why was Cássia chosen as the new Inferno Girl Red, and how does this mysterious power connect to her mother and the previous owner of the dragon bracelet? Answers will be revealed as the newest hero of Apex City fights her way through demons, cultists, and more in this impressive Massive-Verse release. 

 

Originally launched as a Kickstarter, Inferno Girl Red: Book One was supported by 1,593 backers (myself included). The story concept and initial imagery presented by Mat and Erica were impressive to say the least, and I knew that this would be an amazing addition to the Massive-Verse titles. From a narrative perspective, Inferno Girl Red: Book One was conceived and originally released as a Graphic Novel. The story was cleverly designed to allow for a three-part release via Image Comics and her world to new audiences. Sparks really start to fly when Erica’s incredible designs are combined with Igor’s stunning color pallette, taking this story to the next level. There are so many pages that could easily be printed as posters, as most of this book deserves to be framed and placed on your wall. The use of space and framing in the book is particularly engaging, adding even more depth to Cássia’s universe. Also, although I already supported the Kickstarter, I am pretty sure that I will be purchasing a copy of the TPB release as well, because this cover is on FIRE! In many cases, the cover art for comics or TPBs doesn’t do justice to the interior, but in this case, you will continue to be dazzled by what this team has created.

 

The closing pages of the book promises that Inferno Girl Red will return, and I will gladly support any Kickstarter or endeavor that allows Mat, Erica, Igor, Kyle, and the team to continue this original character. This is not your average superhero comic, and you do not want to miss the origin of Inferno Girl Red!
