It's alive ... IT'S ALIVE!!



If the 17 previous multi-topic posts didn't give us away, I think it's safe to say that When Fangirls Attack is back in action. Apparently when life gets in the way of blogging, the Internet doesn't slow down, so we did, um, a lot of catching up. (Next week on Hoarders: Link-Blogging Edition...)

Big thanks my fellow Fangirl Bookwormwithanattitude, Laurel, and Thewherefores for helping code the preceding backlog of links, and to Ragnell for helping me fix up that last post.

Speaking of former WFA bloggers, Ragnell and Kalinara have started up their own brand new women-in-comics themed link-blog, Dispatches From The Fridge, as a sort of weekend supplement, so you'd best add that to your blogrolls.

As always, if you have relevant links to share, comments, questions, etc, you may send them to < womenincomics[at]gmail[dot]com >.

Happy Holidays and all that jazz.
