The Girl Avenger | est. 2007
Who’s that girl? Oh, just the champion of frustrated female creatives everywhere. Thwarted ambition. Imposter syndrome. Rude coworkers. Clients who don’t know what they want, and only know what they don’t want when they see it. Never fear—Girl Avenger is here. For me, anyway, since I stopped drawing caricatures of people who have incurred my wrath. (Just kidding! That never gets old.)
What Girl Avengers are made of. Hint: it’s not sugar and spice.
The Girl Avenger vs. the Panic Monster, who always ruins your day when you least expect it. Let’s hope our intrepid hero’s pen is mightier than self-doubt, existential dread, or the fear that one is dying of some disease or other.
Girl Avenger in the Vortex—of resentment, shame, or just plain laziness. Its relentless swirl is almost beautiful. Fight it, girl! RESIST!
Girl Avenger, As-Is. PSA: You will always be yourself, no matter what you do. So do it, even if you thought it was too late. Or don’t. I’m cheering you on anyway.
Girl Avenger Apologizes. For all those times you should have shut your mouth but didn’t, remember: there are worse things than being honest.
Girl Avenger and the Attack of Free-Floating Anxiety. Good thing she brought her umbrella, because these guys are messy.
Girl Avenger in a Tangle. I can identify; I often find myself struggling with things that don’t seem to be a problem for other people.
Inside the Girl Avenger’s Head. Apathy, wasted time, loose change, insecurity, ice cream and a bunch of other crap.
