Josie and the Pussycats #5

Josie and the Pussycats #5 (2017) delivers a high-stakes showdown at the state fair, where the band’s dream of recording with superstar Cheri Overwood collides with unexpected competition from child prodigy Felicity Mountain. Written by Marguerite Bennett and Cameron Deordio, with vibrant art by Audrey Mok and colors by Kelly Fitzpatrick, the issue crackles with tension as jealousy and mystery unfold—especially when Alexander Cabot unexpectedly arrives with authorities, accusing the Pussycats of plagiarism. The cover by Audrey Mok captures the moment perfectly, setting the stage for a story that’s as sharp as it is musical.
