Comic Book Resources spoke with J Torres about JINX: LITTLE MISS STEPS, the second volume in the Jinx series on sale tomorrow. In this follow-up to the first Jinx graphic novel, we see a teenage Jinx Holliday deal with choosing a date for the spring dance as well as coming to terms with some shocking revelations on the home front. In addition to these more mature themes, the classic character also deals with trying out for the boys’ baseball team and having a relationship with her single father, Hap.  J Torres states that “It's still fairly ‘wholesome’ but maybe more like a teen sitcom than an Archie comic.”



The article also features exclusive preview pages from the graphic novel as well as teaser images.
