As some of you may know, I'm something of a serious amateur comic artist. Not all of my work is really Arena appropriate, so I don't talk much about it here.
However, last year I was invited to work with the artist circle Team Pärvelö for their next anthology project,
Lepakkoluola.
Because the project has now reached the
crowdfunding stage, I feel it's about time to share this piece of information. "Bat Cave" is a collection of comics about women and lesbians in history with a feminist edge, fit for a general audience. Please check out the Pärvelös'
Lepakkoluola tag on tumblr for more information and art. The anthology will be in Finnish with English subtitles and will be out this September.
I don't intentionally make "feminist" comics, I just happen to enjoy and make good (well, I do my utmost to make them good) stories about women. And lesbians. And history. Which must be why I was invited to contribute in the first place. Mine will be a 16-page story set in the Latvian civil war in 1919. (Never mind if you don't know what it is about, it mostly serves as a backdrop in the end.) Any other comic creators here?
