Why aren't you doing anything? It's your birthday...
comicscavern:
What gives you the impression that I’m not doing anything? I can do stuff and tumble - do it all the time. It’s not all necessarily stuff I want to put out on the Internet, but I assure you it’s good stuff. Thanks for the concern, though.
Ask me anything
HEY!
Happy birthday, you!
My Definition of a Phony...
…is a person who only cares about injustice or inequality when they believe they are the target of such behavior. If you only care about YOUR rights, then you don’t care about rights at all.

Oh, Man, Secret Six in 2011
Will be the best year for the Six ever.
CRAZY cool guest stars, rocking new-line-up, and some genuinely disturbing stuff coming.
I AM SO EXCITED.

Happy Holidays, Everyone!
I wish everyone a wonderful holiday and no naked visits from Ragdoll!
“Keep faith. Trust to love. Fight with honor. But, fight to win.”
– Wonder Woman (written by Gail Simone)
This is possibly my favorite line of dialogue I have ever written, and one of the most-quoted things I’ve ever had a character say. I have had people tell me that they used this as their mantra through hard times. Thank you for bringing it up here!
I would buy this set in a minute

Check out this incredible Secret Six set of custom figures. They are so great Nicola Scott and Gail Simone give them the thumbs up. You can see just how intricate the builders work is here. That Jeanette is amazing!
Are they like a special order or will they be out at the LCS?
I cannot STAND how gorgeous and perfect and spot-on these are....
tutter asked: I know it's early to be asking, but do you plan to attend MegaCon in Orlando this coming spring? I love your work and would love to meet you/geek out to you in person.
Fuck Yeah Gotham Slash!: Let's be very clear about... →
fuckyeahgothamslash:
I fell down the rabbit hole of actually looking into the insanity that’s going on on Chuck Dixon’s message board, with repect to the repeal of DADT. Not homophobic, are you kidding me with that? Well there’s lots of reason I could be angry, but what’s the use? Me harping at a famous writer over…
Chuck is a wonderful writer, one of my favorites, and obviously, I am...
Could That DADT Thread ACTUALLY Get Worse?
Amazingly and stupefyingly, the answer is a resounding YES!
Please excuse me while I scrub my brain of some of the dumbest, most deliberately ignorant things I’ve read in this lifetime. Thanks!

I woke up last night, crying.
I’d been dreaming Gail Simone was the boss of everybody & she told me I had to get rid of my dogs.
Stupid dreams.
IMPOSSEROUS!
I love goggies!

Wow. I guess it’s “Or Die!”
Okay, My Question For The Day: DC Females

DCWomenkickingass has been doing an amazing job talking about the best in DCU females, and I can’t top her on that, because she’s fantastic.
But I have a slightly different question.
Who are, to you, the most FASCINATING DC female characters?
They don’t have to be heroes, or fighters, or any particular label. But which female
characters do you find the...

From reading THIS sack of horseshit.

And thus like a river flowed out my respect for Chuck Dixon.
A few sane people have responded since.
I don’t even know what to say. There is so much stupidity in that thread I can’t even address it. I love how in a thread full of pure hostile demonization...

Bleah.
Dear Fellow Creator,
You know as much about what gay rights are about as I know about skydiving.
Which is nothing.
Please shut the hell up, you are embarrassing yourself and making me lose what goodwill still remains after your barrage of dumbass comments.

How did I not know this existed?
Girls Do TOO Read Comics, Goddammit
And don’t let anyone tell you different.
There’s a huge wasteland of people who choose to be either uninformed or in denial. It’s time to wake them up. Make your voice heard. Comment. Write letters. Say what you support and what you don’t. Blog, tweet, tumblr, it all fights the tide. It’s not just for us. It’s not just for you. It’s for the next...
Powerful Article on Race and Homophobia
…by one of my favorite bloggers, James Baldwin.
This piece is uncomfortable and the title is NSFW, but it’s definitely a must-read conversation starter, discussing homophobia among black cultures both in the US and elsewhere.

DC Comics Fan Blog: Real Birds of Prey →
dietelcomics:
This is a concept I’ve been toying with the past few weeks. I had been thinking that a good concept for an issue cover on Gail Simone’s “Birds of Prey” series. I thought it would be cool to depict the characters of the book as ACTUAL birds of prey. As far as I’m aware the idea has never been done….
I LOVE THIS LIKE CRAZY. Can I have your permission to post it with credit...

ceebee-eebee:
A vote for Gail is a vote for all things good and right in comics. Or…more like all things perverted and wrong in comics. Also DINAH AND BABS AND HELENA AND ZINDA AND NAKED CATMAN!!!! Seriously. VOTE FOR GAIL. You know it’s the right thing to do.

Why Is Linderman From My Bodyguard Mad At Me?
I don’t know, but it’s a little disconcerting and SLIGHTLY HILARIOUS.
