Wednesday Runaround – The Lettering Graveyard

GENDER BLENDER

A new online super-hero book looks to off-set gender stereotypes.

"I walked in and I just felt so unwelcome. All the comics on the shelves were featuring women as pin-ups – women with their boobs out, or their clothes falling off … If someone like me feels uncomfortable walking into a comic shop, it's no wonder most teenage girls and adult women wouldn't set foot inside one," he said. Later that day, he led an induction session for the university's new PhD students. "I looked around at the room full of young women – so smart, determined, keen and committed – and remembered that in the original comic, Batgirl was meant to be a PhD student. Why do we never see women like this in comics – women who are normal, likeable and just really, really clever?" he asked.

BLUE JAY WAY

Mark Behar looks back at his work on the Toronto Blue Jay's Comic Book Day giveaways

"Rather than gravitating toward the superhero genre, I had always sought to use the comic format to tell the stories that interested me personally. I read history. I studied the prohibition-era gangsters. And I've loved the Jays since, at 5 years old, I watched the team led by Bell, Moseby, and Barfield head to the playoffs. I asked Dick Giordano, my mentor at this point and a man who constantly validated his reputation as 'the nicest guy in the industry', if he'd join me in pitching a series of promotional comics to the Blue Jays. A hardcore Mets fan, he replied that baseball was his second religion and that he'd happily help—he'd even draw the pitch for free!"

Death Of The Family Comics Turned Into Creepy GIF Art | The Creators Project

The results are at the creepier end of the Batman canon—not quite the camp megalulz of the 60s series, but that's probably because the plotline of the story they're sampling from involved the Joker laying waste to Batman's friends and allies. Whatever your opinion of this iconic comic, you've got to love a GIF of the Joker dangling his skinned face before your eyes.
