Twenty years after they debuted in the comics, Jim Mahfood's Grrl Scouts are coming to live action in a new pilot from the short film spotlight Incubator.

The Grrl Scouts comic centers on a trio of pot dealers/neighborhood enforcers, and helped Mahfood shoot to prominence two decades ago. Around that time, Mahfood was also drawing a lot of attention drawing comics based on Kevin Smith's View Askewniverse characters for Oni Press.

"The twentieth anniversary is a huge deal," said Mahfood. "The characters and this universe have been with me for twenty years and the Grrl Scouts are part of this weird universe I've created, which is sort of this hyper-stylized, punk vibe.

You can check out a featurette about the short, featuring interviews with Mahfood, the director and stars, below, along with some comments from Incubator.

New Form Digital presents an exclusive behind the scenes look at the making of Grrl Scouts. Watch as Mitchell Davis hangs out with the creative team and cast of Grrl Scouts to chat about the collaboration & upcoming short film. This is all part of the #Incubator2 series of shorts, which will launch right here on June 16!
