Powerpuff Girls is making its return to comics with a brand-new series from Dynamite Entertainment (issue one in shops now!), and Eisner-award winning writer: Kelly Thompson (Birds of Prey, Scarlett, Black Widow) is writing it!. Kelly joins Badr in Ep. 434 for a conversation about sugar, spice, and everything that's nice, and talks about what fans can expect from her iteration of Cartoon Network's titanic trio. She also shares her thoughts on leading the 2024 Eisner Award nominations, recaps how a tenacious email to Kelly Sue DeConnick got her foot in the door, dishes out writing advice, and explains who would win in a battle between super-spies: Scarlett O' Hara and Black Widow!
