Phil’s Reviews #348: Gender-Friendly Comics

A few weeks ago, we were talking about comics for kids; this week, let’s talk about another underserved class of readers: girls and women. There’ve always been exceptions to the comics-are-for-guys meme — the Chris Claremont X-Men of the ’70s and ’80s, New Teen Titans in the ’80s, Sandman and a lot of Vertigo titles in the ’90s, and big chunks of the manga boom in the ’00s — but in the last two years we’ve seen both a new commitment by the big comics companies to attract a more diverse audience, and an explosion of female creators, both writers … Continue reading

Phil’s Reviews: Stuff I Bought #344

Ms. Marvel #1 — Writer: G. Willow Wilson; Art: Takeshi Miyazawa and Adrian Alphona; Colors: Ian Herring The Mighty Thor #1 — Writer: Jason Aaron; Art: Russell Dauterman; Colors: Matthew Wilson Spider-Woman #1 — Writer: Dennis Hopeless; Pencils/Colors: Javier Rodriguez; Inks: Alvaro Lopez Another week, and another seven first issues from Marvel — three of them with strong female leads.

It’s easy to see why, too — Wilson, who also … Continue reading

Phil’s Reviews: Stuff I Bought #340

The Astonishing Ant-Man #1 — Writer: Nick Spencer; Art: Ramon Rosanas; Colors: Jordan Boyd The Uncanny Inhumans #1 — Writer: Charles Soule; Pencils: Jay Leisten; Inks: Steve McNiven; Colors: Sunny Cho Karnak #1 — Writer: Warren Ellis; Art: Gerardo Zaffino; Colors: Dan Brown Marvel continues its reboot rollout with three new titles this week: Ant-Man has some imaginative ideas from Spencer — like a Silicon Valley entrepreneur who’s created an Uber-like app for supervillains: need a hero assassinated? It’ll find whoever’s closest and dispatch them to do the job, as Scott Lang finds out to his dismay. There’s a little … Continue reading
