Women In Comics Statistics: DC, July 6, 2011

Seeing as I am far too keen a vacation planner, I don’t leave until tomorrow for my Dance with Dragons reading mini-vacation and everything is ready to go, so I decided to polish off the first July numbers.  On July 6, 2011, DC released 18 new comics with 153 credited creators, 136 men and 17

Women In Comics Statistics: Marvel, June 29, 2011

I’ve saved the worst for last.  Not to be outdone by DC, Marvel decided to drop even lower to finish off June as well.  On June 29, 2011, Marvel put out 17 new comics with 147 creators, 138 men and 9 women.  Here are the record breaking percentages: And we’ve reached a new low.  Congratulations,
