Commentary:
- “I think it could have sold really well if it had been pushed a little bit, but not at comic fans. I have had kids and young girls come up to me at conventions and say how much they liked it, my ten-year-old nephew loved it, my cousin of the same age loved it. The audience Scott told us to aim it at was basically teenagers. We did that, quite well I thought, and then it was criticised by middle-aged male comic fans. It seems that western comics are the only place where teenage girl’s opinions don’t rule the market, which in Wild Girl’s case was a shame.” - Leah Moore (via).
- “We aimed the book pretty squarely at teenage girls, a market that is notoriously overlooked by mainstream comic books, and if we’d been promoted as such we might have done better.” - John Reppion (via).
