APE IN A CAPE: Good Tumblrs For Female Content In Comics?

lesstitsnass:

Thanks so much for the shout-out, Gail, and also for adding to the list of tumblrs I should be following! :D

gailsimone:

Figures I should post some posts about tumblrs that actually do present cool, funny, interesting, meaningful and positive portrayals of females in comics.

This isn’t a long list, I’m missing a bunch I’m sure, hopefully people can make some recommendations? Anyway, these are a few I have been looking at a lot, lately, and enjoying very much.  I bet you will, too, regardless of gender.

1) This site is nothing but gorgeous pieces of art featuring female superheroes. Lovely selection, quite droolworthy!

2) Very cool site that redraws oddball female superhero anatomy with more realistic poses, from the perspective of a storyboard artist. Good stuff (and I think a couple book I’ve worked on are in there).

3)Tumblr of the great Osborn and Supergirl writer, Kelly Sue DeConnick, a terrific writer and commentator.

4) The incomparable Kate Beaton, simply an amazing talent who is already a superstar:

5) Points out bizarre anatomy on female characters with intelligent commentary:

6) One of my favorites, does regular, scrupulous reporting of females in comics, both characters and creators.
