@maenad the Sequel to that one convention's "Heterosexual People And Heterosexuality In Media" panel
@maenad heck... I wish I could go to that
Men in Comics – Men have a long history in comics, both as readers and as characters. This panel is a chance to talk about the decisions that creators make when writing and drawing male-identified people, as well as how these creators’ experience with men in comics have shaped their work. Featuring Caitlin Major, Iasmin Omar Ata, Sheika Lugtu, and Sanya Anwar. Moderated by Eleri Harris.
