Sam Johnson, creator of both Geek-Girl and Cabra Cini, is back this week in Episode 669! These two characters team up in a new three-part crossover, the first two chapters now available through Kickstarter! Sam is a favorite here at the podcast, and he's best known for developing Geek-Girl, Cabra Cini: Voodoo Junkie Hitwoman, and the Almighties (this last one with Mike Gagnon). Here's this book's description: “Super-Heroes meet Weirdness in the Geek-Girl/Cabra Cini: Voodoo Junkie Hitwoman Crossover!” We talk about how this crossover came to be, who the various characters are, and what else Sam will be up to in the months ahead.
