Review of KT Hawbaker-Krohn’s, “Wimmen in Comics Wednesday: Kelley Sue DeConnick”
Thoroughness and Comprehension: (+)
I love the idea of this becoming its own collection/publication on Medium, I definitely see it getting a lot more legs in the future! Great use of proper linking to external sources, captions, supporting content to the main story. Also, fantastic use of title and pairing with a clever, this is what my mind is thinking-esque, subtitle. Very well done.
Stretching of creative muscles: (+)
Definitely felt the conceptual and creative muscle stretching here. This story has a great tone for the interview/expository/feature style writing. And I learned a lot while reading, which is always a plus in my book. The connection to a shared generational, Americana experience like watching “The Little Mermaid” was a great entry point for prepping a reader who may not be familiar with Kelly’s work.
Using the right tools for the job: (+)
Great use of imagery! In the future, try using some drop caps and pull quotes to shake up the typography and layout to keep the story visually interesting.
