Week 12: Women in Comics

This week we look at comics written by women. First I clicked on the link to 16 Comics By Women Only and it made me laugh. Art style aside, it touched on topics that can be extremely relatable for most women. Why is it so relatable and accurate? Because, it was created by women, for women, so that women have character who they can relate to.

I also read a bit of This One Summer. I wouldn't say it's easy to tell who it was written by, but its nice to read conversations between characters that sounds a lot more natural for once. Women in comics can often be overlooked or made out to be weak or annoying or unimportant. However, in this comic, two of the main prominent characters are both female and talk about things that just sound very natural.
