DC announced that they were relaunching their entire superhero line, and when they released full solicits for their New 52 titles there were only 2 female creators with 3 gigs There was a bit of an outcry, to say the least It all came to a head at Comic-Con, when Batgirl (Kyrax2) and others repeatedly[...]
