Week 10....where's Jen?

Hello all!! Yes no posting for this week was done :( I KNOW I SUCK!! Lol, anywho...just thought I would stop by quickly to explain why ;)

Crunch time is now, and its consuming my life!! So many projects, to the point that ripping ones hair out seems like a good option. With me trying to stay on top of the Exams and projects I have due next week I have not had time for the things I like to do, for example, my blog. It sucks, but you know what, I only have a week left ;)

Also prepare yourself for another surprise ;) it will be posted this weekend, along with my usual ladies. As for this week, I'm the hero of the week...pff, haha, with the amount of hours I've been putting into my school work, and the lack of sleep, why not!!


(P.S. I added a link to my deviant art account, I have only posted my older stuff so far, but my works from this week I will be posting after the hecticness of school wears off ;) enjoy)

Week Nine

Busy busy busy, its getting hard to find time to do my blog ;) but thats ok, a couple days late isn't too bad.

This weeks featured ladies are: Colleen Coover and Jan Duursema!

This weeks Superhero is.............Wonder Woman!
Wonder Woman is strong, beautiful and many fans favourite Superhero. Wonder Woman is a member of an all-female tribe of Amazons(based on the Amazons of Greek Myth) and was created by Marston as a "distinctly feminist role model whose mission was to bring the Amazon ideals of love, peace, and sexual equality to 'a world torn by the hatred of men.'"Her powers include super-strength, super-speed, super-stamina, super-agility, and flight. She is highly proficient in hand-to-hand combat and in the art of tactical warfare. She also possesses an animal-like cunning and a natural rapport with animals, which has in the past been presented as an actual ability to communicate with the animal kingdom. She uses her Lasso of Truth(which forces those bound by it to tell the truth), a pair of indestructible , and an invisible jet, which was later replaced with an ability to fly unaided. When DC fans are asked to list the main DC superheroes they will list, Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman ;)

Week Seven

WHAT?WHAT? You haven't watched the video I made for my blog yet?? Well thats just insane!! Before you look at anything on my blog go do that ;)


Anywho, back on track again with things :) Sorry for the hiatus last week, as I said before reading week was a bit crazy so I didnt have time to feature two ladies. But this week we're back on track and the two ladies of the week are: Devin Grayson and Sarah Byam!!!

The superhero featured this week is JEAN GREY! Also known as Jean Grey-Summers, Marvel Girl, Phoenix and Dark Phoenix. Jean was one of the five original X-Men characters when the comic came out in 1963. She is a powerful mutant, as Jean and even moreso when she becomes Phoenix. She has telekentic and telepathic powers. I actually just read her 'death', or you could say rebirth, in X-Men Vignettes. During a mission in space the X-Men faced death as they had problems re-entering Earth. Jean gave her life to save her friends and her husband. The solar radition practically killed her, but she held on with her willpower for moments after. This is when the cosmic entity Phoenix took Jean’s form and life while allowing her original body to heal, and well...during this time Phoenix went crazy with power, killed many and really screwed with Scott and the rest of the X-Men's minds. But you know, she came back eventually, lol. All in all, Jean was always one of my favourites growing up. While watching the old X-Men cartoons in the 90's I always loved her abilities and her and Scott's relationship...and well Wolverine and how he liked her. Jean is powerful, smart and well, pretty bad ass :)

Devin Grayson - Writer

Devin Grayson has a natural talent when it comes to writing for character of Gotham city. She has worked on series including: Gotham Kingihts, Nightwing, Catwoman, and many other Batman related characters. She isn't just a Gotham girl though, she has also done work on the Teen Titans, JLA and work for Vertigo and Marvel.

Sarah Byam - Writer

Sarah is known for her work during the 1990's. She wrote for many different publishers. She has worked on Black Canary, Mode Extreme, Glyph, and other series. Her work on Billi 99 landed her with a nomination for an Eisner Award in 1992.
