Before I started writing POISON IVY, RED SONJA, WONDER WOMAN and other characters for publishers like DC and Marvel, there was GIRLS NIGHT OUT, three issues of multi-genre short stories I self-published. This is a project to remaster and collect them in trade paperback format, with a minimum of 100 (one hundred!) beautiful color pages.
Stories include:
- GIRLS NIGHT OUT with Craig Yeung (Runaways, Green Arrow), colors Juri H-C. The relationship between two women - Jackie, an employee of a nursing home and Rosie, a resident with dementia.
- CAPTAIN, MY CAPTAIN with Eisner award winning artist Janet Lee (Return of the Dapper Men) A mutiny in space goes awry.
- SAVING ABBY with Cabbral My very first story ever! In a future where the world is vegan by necessity, New York City is a dangerous slum, and taxi drivers are also mercenaries...
- BIG CITY with Sean Von Gorman (Toe Tag Riot, Pawn Shop) A story in tweets, with new pages!
- THE DATE with Larry Hama (GI Joe, Wolverine) colors by Eisner award winning Trish Mulvihill (100 Bullets, Batman, Wonder Woman) - A young man frantically rushes to meet his date.
Written for a wide audience so there's no language, nudity, or gore. You won't find these stories anywhere else.
THIS IS A LIMITED EDITION RUN (no more than 500- each copy will be numbered and signed) so don't miss out!
This interview with Comics Beat gives a good overview of the content and process of Girls Night Out from my last kickstarter http://www.comicsbeat.com/amy-chu-kickstarts-a-third-volume-of-girls-night-out-interview/

Risks and challenges
Like most creatives in the comics business I'm a freelancer, and lucky to have enough work to be employed full time. However that can change at any moment, which may have the effect of either speeding up or slowing down this project. If either of these situations occur, you'll all get an update. Timely fulfillment is one of the biggest challenges of any kickstarter, but this ain't my first rodeo. I've successfully run many projects in the past, so even in this chaotic world, you will get your book if it kills me! Most of the book is already done- it's just a question of how nitpicky I want to get in the editing and relettering process.
