Always feel better drawing mashups. Virtue and America would get along, I think.

OH, MAN, THIS IS SO CUTE? Can I get the artist’s name so I can credit them?

The All New Atom #18 

Written by Gail Simone

Dang it, Ryan Choi, quit being so goddamn adorable!

Be honest...ever since you found out Cass Cain is being brought back officially. Were you thinking of asking if you can write her sometime in the future so she can team up with Strix for some badass silent comic book story action?

I am a little gunshy with Cass. The first two times I wrote her in cameos, I messed it up, I didn’t get her right, and it’s always bugged me. 

I was happy with how she appeared in Batgirl: Future’s End. 

But my expectations for the character are so high that I only care about her being done right at this point, not that I get to do it. If Scott Snyder is writing her, she is in the best possible hands and that makes me DELIGHTED.

But maybe she shows up someday to share a kooky with Strix!

So when you gonna finally accept the crown to be high queen of DC comics?

That’s probably Diane Nelson. :)

Hey! I just wanted to say that I really appreciate the time, effort, and care that you are putting in representing more LGBTQ+ individuals and mentally ill individuals. I just want to say thank you! As someone who is in both categories, it's lovely to see

That is incredibly kind of you. 

I am looking forward to what this industry looks like in the next few years, I think it’s going to be a lot more inclusive. Cross your fingers!

AND A MILLION HEARTS BACK!

Will Strix ever mention or will the gang ever have to deal with her background in the court of owls or birds of prey? Thanks in advance!

YES.

We talk about it a little bit right away, but the Court is not completely gone. And they don’t like her having freedom. 

What is your opinion about return of Cassandra Cain?

It’s just me saying “YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY” for about an hour. :)

When the Secret Six preview pages with Porcelain came out, my Mist Creature (non-binary term we've started using for spouse because spouse is so very technical and I dislike saying it) brought their phone in to show me. I thought someone had died, because

I don’t know what to say, what a lovely moment for you to share.

Thank you so, so much. My best wishes to you both! 

I wonder what your dream team of Avengers are?

I don’t know, but I’d kill to write the A-Force team once. :)
