“Introduce a little anarchy. Upset the established order, and everything becomes chaos. I’m an agent of chaos. Oh, and you know the thing about chaos? It’s fair.”

“Anyone else want to smack him?”
I’ve spent my entire life doing nothing but collecting comic books.
And now there’s only time to say… LIFE WELL SPENT!
Awwwwww…

“Dude. I think I just filled the cup.”
From the art to the writing to the lettering to the assistant editors, every aspect of this book was produced by women.
This project has had plenty detractors since being announced last December, but here’s what the series’ editor Jeanine Schaefer had to say about it:
It’s actually comics BY women—and I mean, top to bottom: written, penciled, inked, colored, lettered. The logo is by a woman, all the interior design, production, proof-reading and editing is all by women.
Although some creators have gravitated towards their favorite female super hero, it’s not specifically focused on our female characters, and I’m not trying to generate content that I think will appeal to more women. I don’t want to give away all the stories, but we’re really running the gamut of Marvel characters, from Punisher to the FF to Mary Jane. We’re making great comics by great women, period—when given the opportunity to create a story about whatever they wanted, the pitches I got back from everyone have been hugely diverse in tone and characters.
I’m looking forward to the book. Anything that attempts to celebrate (what little) diversity that exists in the comic industry, I’m a fan of.
