LADYDRAWERS: Gender and Comics in the US is a project about gathering information about women and trans peoples’ experiences in all aspects of the comics industry, Whether you’re a creator, bookseller, conventioneer, publisher, inker, or editor, this project will gather personal stories regarding the intersection between media production and issues of gender. This information will eventually be published in the introduction to a book collecting interviews with women and trans comics artists. If you are interested in answering questions or sharing information regarding professional engagement, gender and sexual identification, and the extent to which gender has been an issue in your own professional pursuits, contact James Payne at james.david.payne.1@gmail.com .

The Big Bad Book
Nik Jajic (co-creator/writer) and Mike Czernaiwski (co-creator/additional art/letterer) present to you—the extremely attractive, and exceptionally brilliant reader—a twisted comedy that insists on blending genres, inducing panic attacks, and occasionally causing motion sickness, all in the form of their deliciously perverse new graphic novel The Big Bad Book from Alterna Comics. It’s been described as Clash of the Titans meets Office Space with a clown and a monkey… yeah, pretty sweet. What’s that?! Still not convinced?! Well then, listen to what a couple of extremely prestigious and very well endowed reviewers had to say:
“The Big Bad Book is a fun and breezy read, there are a lot of good ideas, and Jajic’s handle on dialogue is top notch” -aintitcool
“The Big Bad Book is a locker room humored trip through the absurd and bizarre… with devious clowns and thunder powered monkeys. Gotta’ love that!” -geekinthecity
Yes, it will be awesome, and yes you can get a signed copy, just mark it on your calendar, already! And don’t forget to wear something provocative! Purr!
