It was back in 2014 when comic fans were introduced to Genius from the creative team of Marc Bernardin, Adam Freeman, and Afua Richardson. The story put the spotlight on Destiny who used her intellectual talents against corrupt police officers on the force that were terrorizing her neighborhood. Now there’s a sequel coming as it looks as if Destiny’s journey isn’t finished yet. Check out the press release below:
From writers Marc Bernardin and Adam Freeman (Castle Rock, Alphas, X-Men Origins: Nightcrawler, The Authority, The Highwaymen) and rising-star artist Rosi Kampe, comes a sequel series that promises to set Destiny’s world—and ours—ablaze in GENIUS: CARTEL. The five-issue story arc is set to launch from Top Cow this August.
In GENIUS: CARTEL, 17-year-old Destiny Ajaye took on the LAPD in her South Central Siege and paid for it—not with her life, but with her freedom. Now, Destiny is sequestered in the Madrasa Institute, a government school for prodigies. But will she use her gifts to wage war at the military’s behest—or is she already planning another revolution?
There’s plenty of time to pre-order Genius: Cartel #1 which will be available August 16th
