Womanthology Kickstarter!
Womanthology is a project that highlights women in the male-dominated industry of comics. It's a collection of work from female artists and writers from all levels of proficiency--from beginners to seasoned professionals--and all proceeds from the book go to charity!A kickstarter was launched this evening to raise funds in order to make our project a reality. I'm really excited and honored to be a part of this book; it would mean the world to me and the other 100+ women involved if you would help support it by donating and/or spreading the word! Many thanks!

November 21, 2009 - Mission: Comics & Art presents "Dee's Siren Song" by Jamaica Dyer
Mission: Comics & Art presents "Dee's Siren Song" by San Francisco based artist Jamaica Dyer, who's first graphic novel, Weird Fishes, a collection of her web comic was recently published by SLG Publishing. The show opens with an artist reception and book signing at 7pm on December 18, 2009 and runs to January 27, 2010. Well known comic writer and Internet purveyor, Warren Ellis has this to say about Dyer's work "The only explanation for Jamaica Dyer is that she was built by aliens and dropped here to show us all how crap we are compared to her."
Santa Cruz native and recent Mission resident, Dyer's work includes comic books, illustration and animation with an eye to the fanciful and surreal. Her book Weird Fishes, as she says, "is a story about growing up and realizing that all your childhood eccentricities might make you a total outsider as you enter your teenage years, along with the realization that reality isn’t really what it seems. Dee is at the center of the story, and she sees giant talking ducks and other imaginary creatures, and her best friend is a boy from school nicknamed The Bunny Boy has worn the same Halloween costume for years. When he decides to start being cool and stop hanging out with Dee, suddenly the friendly ducks become monsters and her reality changes forever."

About Girls Drawin Girls:

Since it’s conception, the group has published two volumes of pin-up art and grown to over 30 active members, whose work has been showcased in various entertainment industries, from production design, film and television animation, to graphic design.
