This looks to be a lot of fun if you are into strong women and POC in your comics. This is right up my alley. The artwork looks great.
JILL TRENT, SCIENCE SLEUTH #1 reboots the 1940s heroine with 5 new stories for a diverse new era! Order print & digital copies now! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/dm ... e-sleuth-1
The current stretch goal is to get an ecopy of the original series from the 1940s.
Jill Trent, Science Sleuth was a comic book heroine published in the mid-1940s who solved mysteries and caught crooks using her scientific genius, improbable inventions, and the fighting prowess of her faithful partner, Daisy Smythe!
Now, more than 65 years later, we're bringing Jill and Daisy back in JILL TRENT, SCIENCE SLEUTH #1, a 28-page comic book featuring 5 stories by 5 creative teams! Each stand-alone story reimagines the Science Sleuths in a new way, including a range of racial and ethnic identities and time periods, from the 1940s to the not-too-distant future.
Suitable for all ages, the short stories in JILL TRENT, SCIENCE SLEUTH #1 include both a mix of "real" science and goofy sci-fi, celebrating women in science with an undercurrent of feminism.
With 5 different versions of the Science Sleuths, the unspoken theme is, hopefully, one of diversity and empowerment. The book celebrates women in science as well as female characters in comics. It's just the first in a planned series of new adventures!
