Comics

In an interview with Spark magazine, Jennifer K. Stuller talks about Wonder Woman, Katniss Everdeen, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and the role of superheroines in society.

Popular as the mashup ethos is, I wasn't entirely surprised by the concept behind designer Butcher Billy's new set of superhero-cum-rock star poster prints, but I have to say these are among the best mash-up art that I've seen as of late.

Within superhero mythology there exists room for women to exhibit just as much power as men and be celebrated as well. Whether it’s Buffy from Buffy the Vampire Slayer or Raven from Teen Titans, female superheroes are able to hold their own against powerful male (and female) super villains that threaten the world they vow to protect.

This is one of the harder to find indie comics from the past. But if you can find it, and you appreciate quality comics that aren't about superheroes, get it.
