iFanboy Upstarts: Agnes Garbowska
April 23, 2013 4:08 pm I love Agnes. I got an awesome Captain Marvel & Spider-Woman commission from her last year at FanExpo.

The Perfect Jumping-On Point Is In Your Hands
February 22, 2013 2:36 pm I had always been afraid to jump into a title in the middle of its run until I decided to pick up a random issue of Kieron Gillen's Journey into Mystery.
Am I ever glad I did.

Real Geeks Only, Ladies
October 23, 2012 4:15 pm "Is there not some minimum level of committment beyond going to see the Dark Knight Rises that should be required to call oneself a “Batman fan”?"
Honestly? No.
I think the only way someone claiming to be a fan of something could be not meeting the "minimum level of committment" would be to have never consumed anything related to said topic.
And again I ask, why does it really matter?

Real Geeks Only, Ladies
October 23, 2012 10:37 am I think I've moved past anger at the "fake geek girl" meme and into just exhaustion at having to argue the same points over and over again. The problem with the fake geek GIRL as opposed to a fake geek in general is that *in my experience* a male geek tends to be accepted off the bat before it is discovered that he is a "big fat phony" whereas as a female the default assumption seems to be that we are faking and have to constantly prove to them otherwise.
My question is WHO CARES? Sure, there may in fact be some people faking being a geek. What does that matter to anyone else? Does that really hurt your own experience so much? And if so, why?
