SEXY CHIX TPB

By Joyce Carol Oates, Jill Thompson, Colleen Doran, Gail Simone, Roberta Gregory, Carla Speed McNeil, Sarah Grace McCandless, Joelle Jones, Laurenn McCubbin, Colleen Coover and more.

Don't let the title fool you, this isn't your average collection of comics featuring impossibly proportioned vixens in spandex. This time around the sexy chix in question are the writers and artists behind the comics, respresenting some of the best and brightest talent contributing to the medium of comics and graphic novels today. With stories ranging from mainstream adventures to hilarious comic shorts to heart-wrenching autobiography, Sexy Chix is devoted to the under-recognized contingent of female cartoonists in an overwhelmingly male-oriented industry. It's about time these divinely talented creators get to tell the stories they want to, and the result is an exquisite variety of artistic visions and styles.

104 pages, black and white, $12.95, in stores on Dec. 21.



Wow, never heard any news about this before. I can't wait to read it.

Gail is even on the cover.

Mind if I ask what you're writing for the book Gail?


BTW, Dark Horse is releasing this.

I am curious about this. That's a number of names to squeeze into 104 pages.

I'll have to check it out...

I'm not so thrilled by the title but it could have been worse. Behind the Booty: Women in Comics...

Joyce Carrol Oates? Thats kind of surprising. If whatever store I wind up going to this year carries this, and I can bring myself to carry it to the counter in spite of the seriously inexplicable title, I'll probably buy it.
