…I also have been told that certain female-focussed projects previously mothballed have now been revived and a numbr of female creators contacted as a direct result of the events at the panels of San Diego Comic Con, and Kyrax2′s repeated intervention.

Hooray! I can’t wait to see what gets announced, and who is working on them! But it’s up to all of us who care about gender diversity in comics to vote with our dollars and letters so they continue to put an emphasis on it as well.

Yes! This proves to me just how important it is do bring up your criticisms, even if people wil call you a “bully” or say you are just “complaining”. Smart companies listen to the requests and desires of their costumers and are able to expand and grow because of it.

yeaaaaah no. until i see actual changes, and hear this from more than one person on one site? i’m not going to pat myself on the back for one person saying they’re listening. nothing has been shown or ACTUALLY ANNOUNCED. so yeah.
