DC’s post-lockdown roll out (I almost called it a post-pandemic roll out, but no, we’re still firmly in the middle of all of that) got off to a slow start in terms of female and non-binary creator representation, but the numbers are finally trending upward. The only question is, for how long? This month’s numbersContinue reading “Women & NB Creators at DC Comics, October 2020 Solicits – 22 Creators on 17 Books”

Women & NB Creators at DC Comics, September 2020 Solicits, 14 Creators on 11 Books
Well. Well, well, well. So DC’s first post-COVID hiatus solicits for August weren’t great for female and non-binary creators. The numbers were down noticeably, even accounting for the reduced slate as things slowly ramped up again. But, as I pointed out last time, these are unique circumstances, and things might get back to normal asContinue reading “Women & NB Creators at DC Comics, September 2020 Solicits, 14 Creators on 11 Books”

And we’re back! The pandemic shut down comics for a while, and things are still a little wonky with DC moving on from Diamond, but the good news is that new comics books are coming out again. We last had solicits for the June books, but that went entirely out the window. Now, with thingsContinue reading “Women & NB Creators at DC Comics, August 2020 Solicits, 17 Creators on 13 Books”

We’re going to keep rolling with our stats this week, because we sure do have a lot of spare time now! We might even have the June numbers up next week, at this rate. Also, again, please support your local comic shops if you can during this time of self-isolation. See if they offer mailContinue reading “Women & NB Creators at DC Comics, May 2020 Solicits, 20 Creators on 14 Books”

Self-isolation means it’s a good time to catch up on female and non-binary creator representation at the Big Two! Before we do, though, we should all remember that our local comics retailers are facing difficulties during this period. If you’re looking to buy the great titles listed below but are avoiding public spaces, check inContinue reading “Women & NB Creators at DC Comics, April 2020 Solicits, 29 Creators on 21 Books”
Women & NB Creators at DC Comics, March 2020 Solicits, 26 Creators on 19 Books
DC’s been on a bit of a roll with female and non-binary creator representation lately, posting over 30 different creators each month since November. They’re not going to hit that mark in March, where we’re looking at some big dips in both creators and books. To be fair, March marks the fewest books overall we’veContinue reading “Women & NB Creators at DC Comics, March 2020 Solicits, 26 Creators on 19 Books”
Women & NB Creators at DC Comics, February 2020 Solicits, 33 Creators on 29 Books
It’s February, and that means no more festive shenanigans! Thank goodness. Christmas being on a Wednesday really complicated the last couple rounds of solicits. We’ve got a normal month here, and a strong showing from DC. I was a little worried about widespread representation after January was dominated by female and non-binary creators working onContinue reading “Women & NB Creators at DC Comics, February 2020 Solicits, 33 Creators on 29 Books”
