“The trouble with reading about a given woman’s history who was born before your mom is that sometimes, they were hilarious, powerful, tough, loud, et cetera et cetera all good comic making material! But then sometimes, man, the main thing about them is that they just got screwed, big time. I think when I read about Rosalind Franklin, or Mary Anning, or whoever, of just how shitty stealing someone else’s ideas really is. If I opened a newspaper and saw my comic in it signed by some random dude who was getting paid for it, I’d lose my cool! Dear readers, I would have an undignified tantrum. Wouldn’t you?” Kate Beaton
