Ask me about my feminist agenda.
I could have written a lecture piece about how outrageous it is that writer Chelsea Cain was forced off Twitter because of the disgusting behavior of misogynistic internet trolls. But this is a truth that is self-evident. As artist Richard Isanove put it on Facebook: “Are you F-ing kidding me. It’s 2016! How is Feminism still controversial?”
But more than our 13 NASTY WOMEN list, which I posted last weekend and happened to include Mockingbird (click here, if you are so inclined), I wanted to highlight some of the voices on Twitter that have come to Cain’s defense. Hopefully, she’ll return to Twitter.
Until I can buy my own shirt, this will have to do. Comics are for everyone. pic.twitter.com/sg6HICM0OU

#standwithchelseacain anyone who harasses or fosters harassment, in the creative community, or the greater comics community, is garbage.

The list of talented women who have been driven out of comics by bullies is LONG. It's time to put an end to it! #StandWithChelseaCain pic.twitter.com/6QblZN7UD1

Comics are about how anyone can be a superhero.

The fact that my working in comics, as a woman and a feminist, could upset those f*cktards actually encourages me. #StandWithChelseaCain
