(W) Trina Robbins. (A) Anne Timmons. (L) Sean Glumace. (C) Christopher Butcher. THIS IS THE BOOK THE FANS DEMANDED! Before its publication date, GoGirl! generated enormous buzz on the internet in the form of interviews and rave advance reviews. Excited fans couldn't wait to buy it and read it. But evidently direct-sales retailers don't surf the net. Low advance orders made our original plans for a full-color book an impossibility. What happened next surprised and encouraged us. Fans sent us e-mails, wrote articles on the net, expressing their disapointment, offering help, even pledging a word-of-mouth and internet campaign to help GoGirl! See print. And we've taken them up on it! Starting in August, and every four months after that, you can now follow the adventures of teen superheroine GoGirl! in crisp black and white with full-color covers. Here's what Maggie Thompson had to say about GoGirl! in the Comics Buyer's Guide: " It's clearly aimed at an audience for which not much has been available...: pre-teen girls. And it should entertain that audience well....ALL the female characters (including the villain) are strong and resourceful; ...it's a comic book that could attract readers that comics have largely lost. Try it on them." GOGIRL! YOU'LL BELIEVE A GIRL CAN FLY! b&w, 32pgs. Cover price $3.50.

1st printing. Written by Trina Robins. Art by Anne Timmons. Back in the day, Janet Goldman was an honest-to-goodness flying superhero, the far out Go-Go Girl. But Go-Go Girl eventually hung up her costume -- well, put it away in a dresser drawer -- and now her teenage daughter, Lindsay, has inherited Mom's flying powers, donned her old costume, and become the teenage superheroine sensation Go Girl! Now she's fighting crime and righting wrongs...with an occasional leg up from the now semi-retired Go-Go Girl. Pouring the classic charm of comics of the past through a subtle modernist filter, series creator/writer Trina Robbins and artist Anne Timmons have crafted an all-ages delight, garnering critical praise and a coveted Lulu Award. The GoGirl! collection includes pinups by Barb Rausch, Steve Leiber, Lea Hernandez, Sergio Aragonés, and others and bonus features, including material never before seen in the GoGirl! series. Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 136 pages, B&W. NOTE: "...wonderful, charming." -- Phil Mateer, All About Books and Comics Cover price $15.95.
