Four G-Girl stories will appear in CHAMPIONS #55, 58, 60,
and 62. This is leading up to the debut
of her own comic book, THE SENSATIONAL G-GIRL.
In Champions #55, when a wrestling promoter approaches
the League of Champions with the idea of putting on a championship wrestling
match for charity, the League's newest member, the sensational G-Girl, jumps at
the chance to go one-on-one with one of professional wrestling's most despised
villains, the sinister Tommy "Spiderbaby" Saturday! She figures,
armed with her sensational super-strength and a surprise "secret
weapon," that she'll mop up the bad guy in the ring as easily as she's
been mopping up real-world supervillains like the abominable Ogre. But
professional wrestling isn't the real world. And the Spiderbaby has a few
sinister surprises of his own in store for her. "At What Price
Victory?" is brought to you by the Spiderbaby's real-life alter-ego,
writer Terrance Griep, and one of Italy's finest new young artists, Gaetano
Petrigno.
In Champions #58, we find that the G-Girl's championship
wrestling match, which was after all for charity, did nothing to help the
Jensen family finances. And now, the G-Girl's obnoxious little brother Jimmy's
latest idea on how to go about raising some spending capital is definitely
going to get him in hot water with his big sister, Billi Jayne. "Candid
Camera" is brought to you by the G-Girl's creator, writer/publisher Dennis
Mallonee and artist Gaetano Petrigno.
In Champions #60, while little brother Jimmy is out doing
his best to raise some money, Billi Jayne and her pals Joey and Erin pay a
visit to the local Soda Shoppe. But the Soda Shoppe may be a bit more than it
seems. For one thing, there's a very familiar-looking, bald, bespectacled cook
working the grill. And for another, Pammy the waitress sure looks a lot like
another, significatly more dangerous Pammy that Billi Jayne has met a few times
before. Oh, well. No time to worry about that right now. They don't seem to be
causing any trouble, and there's teenaged girl stuff to take care of before the
weekend is over. "The Soda Shoppe" will be brought to you by the
creative team of Dennis Mallonee and Gaetano Petrigno.
Finally, in Champions #62, featuring a special guest
appearance by the Huntsman, Billi Jayne takes matters into her own hands, and
comes up with what she thinks is a reasonable plan to deal with the Jensen
family's financial problems, at least for the time being. Problem is, bank
robberies are illegal. And when a band of invisible villains tries to stage a
robbery just as Billi Jayne and the Huntsman are busily negotiating terms of a
cash advance with the local branch manager, she feels obliged to go into action
and deal with it as the sensational G-Girl. "Assault of the Blue Men"
will be brought to you once again by the creative team of Mallonee and
Petrigno.
The stories appearing in these four issues of CHAMPIONS
are designed to complement the G-Girl adventures that will be featured in the
pages of SENSATIONAL G-GIRL. Where stories in SENSATIONAL G-GIRL will focus for
the most part on superhero conflict and action, the G-Girl stories in CHAMPIONS
are meant to focus on the more personal aspects of what it might mean for a
teenaged girl with very little experience at being a teenaged girl to find
herself suddenly acknowledged as one of the world's foremost costumed heroines.
