Erika Alexander Co-Writes a Graphic Comic with a Black Heroine

Remember Erika Alexander who played Maxine Shaw, attorney at law from the 90's TV show Living Single? Well refamiliarize yourself because she's got big plans on the horizion.

Erika Alexander, along with her hubby Tony Lyga and her brother, Robert, they have developed a graphic comic with a black heroine called "Concrete Park." The main characters are women of color: Luca, a gang leader, and Lena, her lesbian lover. The novels will feature a cast of different backgrounds who are all struggling to survive in an increasingly depraved world. The backdrop for Concrete Park, is set in the a dangerous near-future where gangs threaten to destroy humanity.

I don't know how you guys feel about this but I think it sounds great. I hope it doesn't disappoint because I will definitely be snatching up an issue when it releases.
