Save the date! Geek Girls Forever will be hosting their monthly Graphic Novel Meetup on Thursday, August 16, from 7:30-9:30 p.m., and this month’s feature is Fanbase Press’ bilingual comic book series, Quince! To make the meetup even more exciting, the entire Quince creative team (Sebastian Kadlecik, Kit Steinkellner, Emma Steinkellner) will be in attendance to discuss their creative process and answer questions from the audience! All are invited to attend (including children 8+ when accompanied by a parent/guardian) this night of celebrating comics!
Quince is a 15-issue comic book series that follows a year in the life of Lupe, a 15-year-old girl who discovers that her quinceañera brings with it a super cool party . . . and superpowers. Her quince powers only last as long as she’s fifteen, so over the course of this rollercoaster year, we follow the adventures of Lupe as she figures out what it really means to be a hero. The series was released digitally, issue by issue, in English and Spanish. It is also the winner of the 2018 IPPY Award and has been nominated for a 2018 Eisner Award, the Dwayne McDuffie Award, and the Excellence in Graphic Literature Award.

About Geek Girls Forever
Geek Girls Forever was born out of jealousy of Geek Girls Society (a group for 8-18 years old – Read more about it here.) and incubated in a local comic book shop, until the groups were big enough to spread their wings and move into their own unique space. Geek Girls Forever is predominately a social club that is welcoming to women of all ages and interests. Our activities are group inspired, and it is not unusual for one of our members to lead an event in which they are passionate about. We are very community oriented and love to collaborate with local vendors, retailers, artists, etc. It’s a big, geeky world, and we want to share it with everyone. (If you want to collaborate, contact us!) Oh and men are always invited and welcome to join us! Children 8 and up are welcome to attend with an adult.
