It’s worth a moment to read through the story tweeted by Tess Fowler of her experience as a young illustrator trying to break into the comics industry.
Fowler’s story is the kind you don’t often hear but worry about being all too common. And her call for naming names in the industry is a bold one that signals a strong shift in recent years in the culture of comics, which has long been an unfriendly environment for female readers and artists.
Everybody’s mad at @royalboiler for speaking truth. lol I wish MORE people in this industry would call out misogynistic men by name.
