By appearances alone, we are like any other women. We shop with our girlfriends, work out at the gym, wear pantsuits to the office. But we are no ordinary women. We are women who love comics. And this legion of comic-book-loving females is more numerous, and more powerful, than anyone could have ever imagined.

Ms.Comix is devoted to introducing women (and men) to other women who read comics, write comics, draw comics, sell comics, and blog about comics. Ms.Comix reviews comic books—from the superhero to Indie—with a special rating system designed to help you chose stories with your desired amount of feminism. Visit mscomix.com for comic book reviews, interviews, articles, and resources for comic writers and artists. 

Ms.Comix’ Mission 

• Support women in comics through featuring women comic writers and artists and reviewing comics with Ms. Comix’ special rating system.

• Provide resources and advice about comic writing as I share my experience writing my first ever full graphic novel script.

• Detail the challenges of breaking into the comic book industry and provide resources and tips.

Ms.Comix will valiantly attempt to provide answers to a whole slew of reader questions. Such as…

What’s the difference between traditional writing and comic script writing?

How do you I go about getting my comic published?

What does a graphic novel script even look like?

I love to read comics, but I can’t draw. Should I give up my dream of working with comics?

What resources for aspiring comic writers and artists are out there?

How do I establish connections with the comic industry?

What jobs in the comic industry exist?

Why haven’t I read a superhero comic written (or drawn) by a woman?

Will being a woman affect my chances at finding a job in the comic industry?
