This is an interesting, positive article on the new wave of female comics writers, characters, and what may be a wave of change in a still very male-dominated industry. It ranges widely, touching on things like Gail Simone, the old Women in Refrigerators site, manga, and the new girl-oriented Minx imprint. While it's not incredibly in-depth, this might be a good reference point for people to start looking at women in the comics industry.
Also, it's nice to hear something positive about comics.
