Inferno Girl Red Book Two Launches this December

Co-creators Erica D’urso and Mat Groom reignite for an all-new fusion of blistering action and heartfelt teen drama in the fiery Inferno Girl Red Book Two. As the cosmic chaos of the Massive-Verse heats up—from Radiant Black to Rogue Sun—this three issue miniseries sees Cássia Costa’s white-hot return to center stage next month.

In Inferno Girl Red Book Two, Cássia has become Apex City’s blazing beacon of hope—but even heroes can’t outrun their past. Still reeling from a devastating loss, Cássia faces the fallout of her own victories as a mysterious new threat emerges. Who are the enigmatic Twins, what dark designs do they have for Apex—and what revelation will shatter everything Cássia thought she knew about her power, her city, and herself?
