The two ladies I featured this week are: Amber Benson and Tara McPherson! As usual just look to the right to see more info about them.
THE HEROINE OF THE WEEK IS...........Storm!! Talk about a strong female! When asking friends to name of favourite women superheroes Storm seems to be one of the most popular. She is one of the most well known X-Men, often acting as a leader or a key person of the X-Men. When first coming on the scene in 1975, many colleagues of her creators Len Wein and Dave Cockrum were skeptical. They thought that the white hair was odd, and may have made her seem old looking. But they were wrong, fans loved the character and found that the white hair was suiting for the character. With the power to control the weather Storm is a very powerful X-Men and strong female role in Marvel Comics, and whether she is going through her full white outfit stage or her mohawk stage, she will always be loved by the fans.
Amber Benson- Comic Book Writer, Actress, Film Director and Producer
Amber Benson played the loveable character Tara on the hit TV show Buffy the Vampire Slayer. But not only is she a talented actress but she also helped to write Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Willow and Tara comics.
Tara McPherson- Illustrator
Tara has a unique style that has made her stand out in the industry. She has worked for different companies like DC comics and Dark Horse. She also did a comic for 1001 Nights of Snowfall, and personally I think it is very well done!
On a side note** I found a video with Karen Berger (featured week two) talking about Vertigo Comics, thought people might enjoy it :)
