Market "Monday" coming soon...
Mondays are pretty booked for me this summer, usually including a full day of work and a night class, so it has only just occurred to me that I fell asleep last night before doing Market Monday.
So, it’s coming. Not sure when, but soonish.

Whenever I hear these ridiculous accusations of attractive people (mostly women) faking geekhood for the attention, I can only think it’s because the attractive people are not acting the way attractive people are expected to act.
I was never teased for being a geek. Once I hit high school, I never had any...
"Geek" is Not a Bad Word Anymore: A Rant →
Molly MacIsaac at iFanboy has thrown her hat into the ring about the “debate” about the new Miss USA calling herself a geek and how it is merely the latest event in a long line of attractive women/quasi-celebrities proclaiming their geekhood and being automatically doubted, even scorned and lambasted for “pandering” or “bandwagon-hopping.” Go read it, it’s...

Great interview about a book I am breathlessly anticipating! Also, Wilson dropped this tantalizing tidbit:
GWW: I just finished my first prose novel, Alif the Unseen, which I think comics readers will love. It comes out next spring. It’s about a hacktivist in a fictional Arab country who gets into a lot of trouble with the government, some jinn, and a girl. I began working on it about a year...

Tell me all about your favorite Ladies in Comics...
In celebration of 1000 followers, I started to put together a list of, what I planned on being, 1000 Ladies in Comics Things You Should Know About. I got up to nine before I came to two conclusions: 1) This was going to take a while, and 2) Why should just my opinions matter so much, especially when I’m celebrating all of my readers?
So I’m throwing this out there— I want to...

Bleeding Cool has posted reports from yesterday’s road show in Texas. And here you go:
You won’t be seeing Donna Troy yet in the new DCU, nor the Stephanie and Cassandra Batgirls. They haven’t been killed off though, just benched.
And the new readers they are targeting?
The target audience are men age 18 to 34 though they do realize that they have...

The latest round of outrage over the matter of women in comics was sparked off when DC’s relaunch had only three “distaff” members. In all the talk-talk there was some along the lines of Adam P Knave’s Why Aren’t There More Women in Comics? which points out the lack of a welcome mat for female creators…Knave takes pains to point out that he’s talking “mainstream” comics, but this got me...
