Hacker Extraordinaire Fights a Cabal of International Femme Fatales in ‘Yumi: Spy Fatale, Baddie Royale’ on Kickstarter

Yumi: Spy Fatale, Baddie Royale is the world’s greatest hacker, demolition expert and great with parkour. When her super spy boyfriend, Richard, is kidnapped, she’s ready to go crazy on anyone who stands in her way. Of course, in this case a cabal of international femme fatales are standing in her way. The comic comes from writer Doug Wager, artist Hoyt SIlva, colorist Kevin Lennertz, letterer Frank Cvetovic, designer Sasha Head and editor Lisako Yamauchi.  The comic Yumi: Spy Fatale, Baddie Royale is currently running a Kickstarter, running through March 11, 2021.

Here’s what the creative team had to say:

“Yumi pays homage and respect to the massive contribution Ian Fleming gifted the literary world, while bringing a modern flair to the genre,” Wagner explains. “Yumi may sound like a spy story, but it embraces so much more. Yumi is about how love can inspire a person to become more than they believed of themselves. It’s ridiculous and over the top. It’s a story of unconditional, all-consuming love filtered into an action blockbuster—Scott Pilgrim meets Kingsman, all wrapped in a sassy, heartwarming pancake.”

“So many explosions. So many countries. So many battle sequences. Yumi: Spy Fatale, Baddie Royale is one of the most adrenaline-fueled projects of my career—Doug’s script crackles with momentum,” Silva explains. “It was an amazing challenge to match that sheer energy.”
