NOTE: THIS ARTICLE CONTAINS MAJOR SPOILERS FOR DANGER DAYS: THE TRUE LIVES OF THE FABULOUS KILLJOYS.
The Girl is the nameless protagonist of Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys. As a child The Girl traveled with the Fabulous Killjoys, each of whom believed she was destined to serve an important purpose in defiance of Better Living Industries. She is portrayed by musician Grace Jeanette.
The Girl was an estimated five to eight years old in 2019 and wore a multi-colored vest and crash helmet, along with jeans and a traditional Japanese long-sleeve shirt. She also wore several pins on her vest and belt, and an assortment of plastic whistles hung from her neck.
She was beloved by the original Killjoys, especially her pseudo-father figure Cherri Cola. The Killjoys' love for her would later inspire their eventual descendent rebellion, The Ultra V's, to continue protecting The Girl after their deaths.
She appears in the videos for Na Na Na and SING, and is the protagonist of the first Killjoys comic anthology published by Dark Horse Comics.
Appearances in Film[]
The Girl appears at the end of the the music video for "Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na)" with Korse. It appears that she was kidnapped by Korse in order to bait the Killjoys into the BL/ind Facility, where he could exterminate them.
She can also be seen at the end of the SING video, being rescued by Show Pony and Dr. Death Defying from outside of the Better Living Industries Facility.
"True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys" comic[]
The Girl is the protagonist of the True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys comic series, set 12 years after the deaths of the Killjoys in 2019.[1][2] In 2031, The Girl living on her own with a pet cat as her only companion. She has doubts about her own destiny and usually only feels comfortable around people who had directly known the Killjoys. She later joins up with Val Velocity's group The Ultra V's, albeit reluctantly.[1][3][4] After the deaths of Dr. Death Defying & DJ Cherri Cola and the revelation of her origins by the Phoenix Witch during an out-of-body experience, she goes to Battery City to use her true power.[5]
This power is a kind of "bomb" capable of destroying Battery City. She gained this power as a result of her mother, who died fighting in The Analog Wars, whose soul didn't escape during Draculoidization because of the pregnancy. The influence of her mother's soul and the chaotic upbringing of the Killjoys led to the creation of the bomb inside of her. She can power and depower objects deliberately and charge objects in her presence unconsciously, like DESTROYA. This power was something that BL/ind wanted to keep tabs on, due to the potential of Battery City's destruction. After escaping Battery City in 2019, BL/ind planted the C.A.T (a nuclear tracking device and camera disguised as a black cat) to look out for her. Instead of trying to capture or subdue her before hand, BL/ind let her stay in the Zones to avoid Battery City at all costs, but that she could also help to "cleanse" the desert.[5][2]
Ultimately, The Girl decides not to destroy Battery City, but to use the bomb to free the lost souls trapped in Battery City's electricity. This, along with Blue's rampage with DESTROYA and Korse's actions, led to the downfall of Battery City. After the final battle, The Girl discovers her amnesiac mom, her soul having been freed after The Girl set off the bomb.[6]
