One Step Forward, Two Steps Back
It's quite nice that Two Morrows is offering a free comics magazine in keeping with Free Comic Book Day. So I did a search on "female creator" to see if I could find anything about women in comics history or currently creating comics, but that turned up nothing; a search on "women" returned no freebies; and a search on "female" got a result for an issue mostly about female characters, and featuring a female creator round-table talk, so that would appear to be the only choice for potential readers interested in the subject, except this issue isn't not on sale yet. Maybe it's all one can expect when a prominent comics blogger asks, with no apparent irony, "Do other industries have things like the Mid-Ohio Con Incident?" A bit of specificity might help here - does he mean sexism, accusations of alleged assault, rampant speculation involving scandals? Please, give me strength. Do other industries have people?
