WOMEN IN COMICS UK/IRELAND

I’ve created this permanent page from a blog post I wrote in March 2011 called women in comics in uk/ireland – redux.

At the time I recognised that there were still people asking the question “Where are the women working in comics in the UK and Ireland?“, and if you were unable to point them to a single resource with all the names listed, the assumption was that women weren’t active in the industry in significant numbers.

Thus, it occurred to me to establish a list that includes women writers and artists (colourists, inkers, pencilers, etc.) who work in sequential storytelling in the UK and Ireland.

At this point (February, 2012) there are 146 women on the list.

Those marked with an * are Irish or based in Ireland.

I’m keeping this list updated regularly. Please email or tweet me if there are women omitted from this list. (Last update: February 28, 2012)
