I wanted to try something new and highlight a few of my favorite female creators. These influential women are among the best in the industry, each bringing their own uniqueness. They inspire me every day with their passion, their honesty, and their raw talent. I am going to talk about a little of their work and known upcoming projects, as well as bring attention to the fun quirks they share online, like their pets. I feel so grateful to have experienced having my reviews shared by these ladies, and I am looking forward to talking about them.
I was first introduced to her work through Feral, and I fell in love. She’s been drawing her whole life. Her art is playful, expressive, and bubbly. She is known for STRAY DOGS and has created covers for several other well-known series. She can be found traveling to conventions and comic shops, signing things, and greeting fans. Her Instagram is filled with her adventures, her brilliant art, and gives you adorable updates on her dog. Who is a star of their own. There are so many reasons you should be following her and collecting her creations. Make sure Feral is on your pull list!
I was gifted POISION IVY issues written by her, and when I finally had time to read them, I couldn’t put them down. Known for co-creating MS MARVEL, you might be surprised to learn that she has created more personal works related to her life in Egypt, which was named a Seattle Times Best Book of 2010. Her work is broad and deep rooted in meaning. I am excited to follow her creations accross her career and learn from the stories she brings to life. She says she enjoys talking about creative ideas, signing books, and taking photos. Keep an eye out for chances to meet her and ask her a good question.
This incredible woman is responsible for some of the best, most graphic horror comics I have ever read. From start to finish, she can do it all. I have written a review about her series Doll Parts, the origin story of Domino from Lovesick. Needless to say I am a huge fan hoping to cross her path one day to get a my covers signed so I can compliment her dedication in person. Her career in the industry is solidified and you would be wise to keep up with it. She is rapidly expanding her audience and creating beautiful pieces to buy for your collection. She takes commissions and has merch you can order through the link in her bio on Instagram.
One of my friends put a Black Bag Variant of issue number one in my pull box for me to pick up later. When I got around to reading it, issue four had already come out. I was smitten, rushing to the comic shop the next day to buy the next three. She has an impressive list of ongoing creations under her belt as well as a love of cats. Her art is dripping with sex appeal that will have your jaw on the floor. You can catch her at conventions doing signings and selling her golden creations. I can’t urge you enough to follow her for her upcoming projects and indulge in her past work.
The multifacited women are paving their own paths across the industry and if you aren’t keeping up with at least one of them, you are missing out. I have linked all their Instagrams, which you can access by clicking their names above. I have also included links to my reviews for Feral and Doll Parts so you can check them out.
