And so it continues.




What the actual FUCK? If that was a black driver running over white kids, she'd be drawn and quartered by now AND we we be treated to dozens of news reports condemning the entire black community. God DAMN it.

Nail on the head, Gail.  Anyone want to take bets how long it takes for these kids and their parents to be dragged through the mud and somehow made to look the bad guys despite simply asking for justice to be meted out.  






And she has the goddamn GALL to not only BLAME the kids in her latest response, but to say she did it only because she was concerned for their safety.

That woman is the living embodiment of white privilege and cruelty and dishonesty. DISGUSTING.

And with that, they teleport off to celebrate Dinah's victory in the traditional Amazon manner.


With epic kinky Amazon sex :D


Yeah, this week I definitely feel like some Diana/Dinah :D


The sheer amount of femslash-y fanfic that these two…






Guys, I cannot even explain the electricity that happens when you pair Wonder Woman with Black Canary on the same page.

Some of the most fun I have had in comics. We had an extended thread where Diana was going to be with the Birds for six issues…but it got derailed with the Max Lord stuff. :(

That day when we celebrate all things Charlie and Dark Vengeance. When we take the time to remember & appreciate that extremely eager & ever hopeful part-time BoPer.


Last year saw a wonderful outpouring of Charlie-love, with…

Kickstarter Project o' the Week


The African-American Superhero Anthology


I have most of my eyesight back, so I'm here promoting a project that doesn't explicitly involve lady creators (though I'm hoping they do reach out to African-American lady creators as well!)



Anyone who goes to the movies or turns on television knows that comic books have taken over pop culture. This summer alone, three superhero films adapted from comic books are hitting the big screen.


And that's great, right? Well, yes … except for one big problem …


The vast majority of superheroes proliferating pop culture these days are NOT people of color.


And that's because, even today, minorities are still in the minority when it comes to the world of comic books. And that means, tons of potential readers are not being served with stuff they might like.


The fact is, the world needs more heroes of color — so, we decided to create some!


Presenting: The African American Superhero Anthology.


Created by writer/editor Carlton Hargro, with art and stories by a host of artists and writers, The African American Superhero Anthology (aka "Super Black") is designed to introduce a bevy of new and divergent heroes of color to the comic landscape.


But in order for The African American Superhero Anthology to become a reality, we need YOUR help….


The Anthology will be published as a 48-page, color, one-shot comic book.
It will feature four main stories — written and drawn by a number of creators. The comic will also feature full-page illustrations by several new and established artists and text pieces written by Carlton Hargro.
The vast majority of the characters featured in the Anthology are brand-new characters that have never been seen in published comic books before. (So, collectors should take note, this comic will feature a number of first appearances.)
Creators contributing work to the Anthology include: Writers Carlton Hargro and Darrick Hargro; artists John Hairston and Marcus Kiser; Image Comics writer/artist Jimmie Robinson and artist Antoine Williams (who drew pin-ups); and more to-be announced.

They only need $50 more to reach their goal, but why not make this project the next Womanthology?





This sounds like an AMAZING idea.  Please support it!



And people making the book, please let me know if I can help in any way, spreading the word or whatever!

If I Get My Way...

gailsimone:



…on the thing I just pitched last week, we will have something awesome that has never been done in mainstream superhero comics.


I'd better get my way, is all I am saying. :)



Man, I hope it's the Superman ham weakness.





Dude, it's even BETTER than Superman having a weakness to ham!
