I just found out my story for Marvel Girl Comics is on shelves now in issue #2! It was originally solicited for #3, so don’t miss it and get it now!

Today’s NY Post has a piece on Marvel’s Girl Comics featuring some info on my story (upcoming in May’s issue #3), click here to read!

Marvel’s solicitation for my issue of Girl Comics (#3) has gone out! The artist on my story is Emma Vieceli, colors by Emily Warren. The story was fun to write, the art looks great, and it will hopefully deliver a chuckle or two. Fabulous cover is by Jo Chen!

I have a new Marvel Divas story premiering at Marvel Digital tomorrow! Newsarama has a sneak preview of the art here, and it’s a must see. Sara Pichelli’s art is stunning and well complimented by Emily Warren’s colors! I really lucked out to have them on my story. Happy Holidays Divas!

I’ll be participating in a new Marvel anthology called Girl Comics! Check out this contributor lineup (as posted at The Beat, click to read more details!)

“Contributors include Kathryn Immonen, Marjorie Liu, Devin Grayson, Ann Nocenti, Trina Robbins, G. Willow Wilson, Stephanie Buscema, Amanda Conner, Jill Thompson, Louise Simonson, Valerie D’Orazio, Colleen Coover, Molly Crabapple, Nikki Cook, Ming Doyle, Abby Denson, and Carla Speed McNeil. The book is edited by Jeanine Schaefer, and we’re happy to debut the cover of the first issue, by Amanda Conner, colored by Laura Martin.”

My next Spider-Ma’am adventure will be on the stands this Wed. May 20th featuring art by Adam Dekraker! Keep an eye out for it!

Amazing Spider-Man Family #4 is on the stands, featuring another installment of my Amazing Spider-Ma’am with art by Colleen Coover! Don’t miss it! You can see a bit of lovely art Colleen did of Aunt May’s new nemesis : Edna Blackquill at her site here. Edna is debuting in this issue!

Update! Newsarama, gave us a great review! Link here!

Here’s a snippet:
“Writer Abby Denson crafts a witty and creative take on Aunt May …These playfully droll stories allow Aunt May to step away from the frail, ready-to-keel-over-in-a-heartbeat old biddy, to become a more confident, smart, heroic Golden Girl…
Filled with slapstick humor and sweetness to spare this story, drawn with the deft hand of Colleen Coover (who only seems to get better and better with each assignment), offers a wonderful new take on a classic, iconic Marvel character that is a clever and sweet breath of fresh air.”

What a fun time! I didn’t get too many pics but here’s one of myself and artist Colleen Coover at my first ever Marvel signing. Yay! Don’t forget to buy Amazing Spider-Man Family for our Spider-Ma’am adventures!

Also the panels I participated in were all well attended and fun. Kudos to all involved!

Plus, I got to catch up with Uglydoll creator David Horvath! Here he is with a new Uglydoll (and Dolltopia mini).

Awww!

Here’s a snippet:

“… for me the bright spot of this mixed-pot of Spidey tales always comes from the super fun, super cartoony Spider-Man adventures. This time around we get the great, delightfully sweet “The Amazing Spider-Ma’am,” a tale that dares ask - and answers - the never before explored question; “what if frail, old Aunt May put on the Spider-Man costume and fought crime?”

Written by indie comic sensation Abby Denson, with art by the always playfully talented Colleen Coover, this cutesy, slapsticky story is just pure, comic book goodness. How come no one has ever thought of giving Aunt May a heroic moment in the sun? Sure, she’s had plenty of everyday, non-superheroy heroic moments in her long career, but to my knowledge this is the first time we’ve seen her step up to the plate and actually take down criminals - all while sporting her nephew’s costume.”

My first Spider-Man comic, Amazing Spider-Man Family #3 is in stores now! My story is all about Aunt May fighting crime as Spider-Ma’am and it’s a lot of fun with great art by Colleen Coover. I reveal many more details in this interview at The Pulse. Click and read!
