Women Doing Comics
Founded by Jackie Estrada and Elayne Riggs Maintained by Stacie Ponder
Updated as of August 10, 2003
Below is a list of women currently playing instrumental roles in comics as writers, artists, colorists, letterers, editors, and publishers of currently available comics (both print and online), graphic novels, strips and one-panel cartoons. This list is updated regularly, so if you have any corrections and additions to it (particularly updates on projects and website links), please e-mail me. If you know (or are) a woman working for a comics publisher in a non-editorial and non-storytelling capacity, for a sep house or design firm doing comics projects, in retail or for a comics trade journal, e-mail me her/your name, title and employer (and if a retailer, the store's town/city and state/province as well) to be listed on our Industrial Strength Women page, a salute to the unsung women involved in the comics industry. If you see some names have disappeared from this list, it's probably because they're not currently working in comics and they're being moved onto our Women in Comics "Herstory" page, still in progress; if you know of other women listed below who belong there rather than here, please e-mail Elayne Riggs with that info.
Current Announcements
Women have been making tremendous strides in the field of
webcomics lately - some of the best can be found at Girlamatic, edited by Lea Hernandez and featuring work from female cartoonists Donna Barr, Vera Brosgol, Svetlana Chmakova, Kris Dresen, Shaenon Garrity, Lisa Jonte, Hope Larson, Layla Lawlor, Jenn Manley Lee, Dylan Meconis and Spike, with more to come! Hernandez is also a contributor to Girlamatic progenitor Modern Tales, which features work from Barr, Dorothy Gambrell, Garrity, Amber "Glych" Greenlee, Jessica Grilihas, Faith Erin Hicks and Tania Menesse. And over at Modern Tales' sister site Serializer one can find Gabrielle Bell, Renee French, Garrity, Carrie Golus, Metaphrog and Lauren Weinstein.

Lest we forget... As noted on the Friends of Lulu home page, the comic book world responded to the tragic events of September 11, 2001 with some noteworthy projects. The WDC list would like to acknowledge the fine work of the many women who have contributed to those important anthologies: Jessica Abel, Laura Allred, Hilary Bader, Donna Barr, Joyce Brabner, Nikki Coffman, Becky Cloonan, Chynna Clugston-Major, Amanda Conner, Marie Croall, Colleen Doran, Jo Duffy, Sarah Dyer, Melissa Edwards, Fly, Renie French, Mira Friedman, Melinda Gebbie, Tatiana Gill, Jenny Gonzalez, Sam Hester, Sandra Hope, Layla Lawlor, Carol Lay, Ellen Lindner, Sandra Marrs, Lauren McCubbin, Mary Mitchell, Jennifer Moore, Doreen Mulryan, Ashley-Jayne Nicolaus, Marti Noxon, Pat Prentice, Anne Richardson, Trina Robbins, Laurie Ross, Marie Severin, Gail Simone, Jen Sorensen, Jill Thompson, Anne Timmons, Lauren Weinstein and Meredith Yayanos. We urge everyone to support Marvel's Heroes; the two-volume 9-11 anthology put out by DC, Chaos, Dark Horse and Image; and Alternative Comics' 9-11: Emergency Relief, which benefit various charities associated with the tragedy.
