After battling their way through hundreds of contestants on Making The
Band 3, releasing back-to-back #1 album debuts, and fresh off the heels
of debuting their sophomore album at #1, Danity Kane is launching their
own comic book. In celebration of their MTV Video Music Award
nominations for Best Dance Video and Best Pop Video for “Damaged,” the
Bad Boy girl group will present a special collector’s preview edition
of Danity Kane #1 for Danity Kane Comics.
Created by Danity Kane band member, Dawn Richard, the comic book is
best described as “Sin City meets Sex and the City” - the special
edition opens with the birth of Danity Kane and how they are ultimately
chosen to save the universe. The main anime character’s super power
includes controlling people’s thoughts with her voice and the villain
is very reminiscent of Diddy himself:
A silent battle rages on between the Syokin and Lotus over control of
Jyzfire, the home planet of Danity Kane. After Rayden Kane (father of
Danity and leader of the Lotus) is killed in a battle with Kobin Toles
(leader of the Syokin) to save Silu Kane and the unborn Danity Kane,
the Syokin have inevitably lost their home plane, but Kobin’s
disillusioned vision of a universe of peace under Syokin leadership is
focused on Earth as his first test planet. With the ultra ability to
manipulate and convert sound waves into solid matter, warp space and
time, and alter mind patterns of other lesser beings to their likings;
the Jyzfirian beings have come to earth with two separate motives…to
“preserve and protect” and to “control and destroy.”
Unbeknownst to many, the name Danity Kane existed long before Making
the Band 3. “We were in the studio and I actually draw comics, and
Diddy had been throwing some names at us,” explains Dawn on the
inspiration of the group’s name. “He looked at the superhero that I
drew and he asked me what the name of the character is...I said ‘Danity
Kane.’ A comic book was always in the future plan; this could not have
been at a better time as our group is celebrating many successes this
year.”
In addition to the comic book, the Danity Kane Brand includes their
highly anticipated second single “Bad Girl” featuring Missy Elliot,
which includes a Sin City graphic, alter-ego-themed video that mirrors
a similar vibe as Danity Kane Comics, and is currently rising on the
Billboard charts. This Fall, Danity Kane will also launch the Danity
Kane for Dollhouse denim collection in national department stores, the
Danity Kane Visa Cards, as well as the unveiling of their “I’d Rather
Go Naked Than Wear Fur” PETA ad.
WELCOME TO THE DOLLHOUSE, the RIAA gold-certified new album from Bad
Boy recording group Danity Kane, made an explosive arrival atop the
SoundScan/Billboard 200 album chart upon its March release. The album’s
success marked the group’s second consecutive #1 chart entry –
following their 2006 RIAA platinum-certified, self-titled debut – and
gives them the official honor of being the first female group in
Billboard chart history to have both debut and sophomore albums enter
the main album chart at #1.
