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.
Among the sexy chicks are
New York Times best-selling author Joyce Carol Oates, Eisner Award-winning illustrator Jill Thompson (
Scary Godmother),
A Distant Soil writer/artist Colleen Doran,
Bitchy Bitch creator Roberta Gregory, DC Comics writer Gail Simone, novelist Sarah Grace McCandless (
Grosse Pointe Girl), and many, many more!
Features stories by and about women from the under-recognized contingent of female authors/cartoonists.
