Author Information
Marguerite Bennett is an American comic book writer. She has worked on Bombshells, Angela, Josie and the Pussycats, and her creator-owned books InSeXts and Animosity. Her work has been recognised for her depiction of female relationships, and her representation of LGBTQ stories and characters earned nominations for a GLAAD Media Award in 2016 and 2017. Tee Franklin is a Queer disabled Black woman who writes comics: ""The Outfit"" (Nailbiter #27), ""A Blazin'"" (in the Ignatz award-winning Elements Anthology), ""Tears"" (in the Eisner-winning and New York Times best-selling Love is Love), and Inclusive Press' Queer romance graphic novella, Bingo Love. Franklin won the 2017 Queer Press Grant for Bingo Love and raised almost $60,000 for this graphic novella via Kickstarter. She fights for inclusion in comics, no matter the risks, as she hopes that the next generation of marginalized comic creators won't have to put up with what's been happening for the past 75-plus years.
