Book Recommendation Requests > Gef’s Request

Gef wants to read: Graphic novels written by women.

The world of comic books is pretty much a boys club, but there are some talented women responsible for comic books and graphic novels. But I need recs, so let me know what I should be looking for.

Agatha Heterodyne and the Beetleburg Clank (Girl Genius, #1)
by

Phil Foglio

she said: " This is written by a husband + wife team (so not solely a female author) but stars a strong, smart wonderful woman as the protagonist. Good stuff, this. And it is a series with a web comic to back it. "
