I unashamedly post things I like. Maybe someday I'll actually post original content.

Dark Horse Comics Lady Killer mini series (compiled into a perfect bound graphic novel edition) is written by Jamie S. Rich and Joelle Jones, and masterfully drawn by Ms. Jones herself. 

The gritty (and bloody!) story deals with a Mad Men era suburban Seattle housewife who’s actually a CIA assassin. 

Artist Joelle Jones explains how she playfully put together a series of vintage ad mockups while doing research for the project, shown above (with additional hand lettering by Crank). The mini-series is a dark delight, just as these playfully grim ads are. This isn’t a comics blog, of course. And Rich and Jones’ mini series won’t be for everyone. But the art is still terrific, and those ads are fun. The illustration style and typography is strictly now, but the coloring and general ‘feel’ are pure retro. And we’ll admit it: We love retro, and get a real kick out of seeing contemporary tweaks and twists of vintage 20th century design, illustration and photographic tropes. Check out more of Jones work at joellejones.com.

Dilbert comic Scott Adams wrote last month that we live in a matriarchy because, “access to sex is strictly controlled by the woman.” Meaning that you don’t get to have sex with someone unless they want to have sex with you, which if we say it without any gender pronouns sounds completely reasonable. You don’t get to share someone’s sandwich unless they want to share their sandwich with you, and that’s not a form of oppression either. You probably learned that in kindergarten. But if you assume that sex with a female body is a right that heterosexual men have, then women are just these crazy illegitimate gatekeepers always trying to get in between you and your rights. Which means you have failed to recognize that women are people, and perhaps that comes from the books and movies you have—and haven’t—been exposed to, as well as the direct inculcation of the people and systems around you.

Let’s find Dana a good home!

Meet Dana! Named for the mayor of the little town of Nightvale, we found this cutie wandering the streets of Ontario, CA and she came right to us when we called her over, all tail wags and smiles. She is about 7 years old, and 65 pounds of pure joy. She's spayed and up to date on all her shots. She has lots of energy, but also loves to nap as much as possible (right next to you if you'll let her!). Dana loves people of all shapes and sizes and is looking for a forever home with no other pets. She loves going on walks, and is pretty good on the leash, but could use some extra training when it comes to interacting with other dogs. She knows how to sit and wait and is also crate trained and housebroken.

If you’re interesting in adopting this beautiful little girl, please contact LeAnn at leann.foss@gmail.com. If not, please reblog this post so that we can find Dana the home she deserves!
