Why I Love Nicola Scott
“ It was a badge of pride that as two women we were creating the sexiest and most violent book in the DCU.”
From an interview with the great Red Dot Diva in Singapore.

Hello, Gail! I've been curious about this for a while, but if you could have written more issues of Secret Six do you think you would have developed the relationship between Liana and Knockout? As happy as I am that Scandal got to be with both of them, I'd
I would have, absolutely. I have gotten in trouble a bit in the past for talking about plans that WOULD have happened when I have left a book, but since a new Secret Six book is not in the cards for a while…
In talking with people in polyamorous situations, one thing they have stressed right away is that each relationship is different and that it is not necessarily required that each two way connection is equally as deep. So it’s not like Lianna and Kay would suddenly somehow be in love on the first day. But my feeling was that Kay is from Apokalips, it was already established that monogamy is not important to her in the same way as it might be to many people here on Earth. And Lianna wants Scandal to be happy. So I think they would give each other a fair shot. In the end, it was always my feeling that Lianna and Kay would grow to love each other…I wouldn’t want comics’ only truly poly relationship to be forced or miserable. I picture them together forever.
Who knows how the story would have gone, but that’s what I had in mind.

Drug Addiction is the Enemy of Talent
You don’t have to agree with me, but this piece echoes my feelings and my experience pretty much exactly. Thanks to @laurennmcc for sending me the link.
If you’re struggling, I hope you find help. I’m a jackass who hasn’t had a drink or drug in almost 12 years; if I can do it, so can you.
Food for thought from the great Kelly Sue.
APE IN A CAPE: Free Comic Book Day In Florida, WOOT!
I know I mentioned this before, but as it gets closer, wanted to mention it again for any who might be interested.
I’m pretty excited for this Free Comic Book Day. For the first time ever for me, I will be at TWO different stores in Florida. In the morning, I will be at Yancy Street Comics, which…
I’m so excited! My girlfriend and I are planning our entire anniversary trip around this! It’ll be nice to get away from the stresses of work, have a weekend to relax, and get to meet Gail Simone all in one!
I hope it’s not too annoying if I bring a long a bunch of my comics to get signed :)
Not at all! I never have a limit on the number of comics I sign, I am delighted to sign whatever number you choose to bring, okay?
And happy anniversary! Because it’s your special day, please be sure to check the signing hours, because I am splitting the day between the two stores and wouldn’t want to miss you.

Flawless, bad ass lady
Black Canary drawn by Cliff Chiang is a thing that I most definitely have got to reblog
I will defend that costume til the death, fishnets and all (except for the high heels, too weird on a martial artist).
