Gender and webcomics

More than 40% of female, transgender, and non-binary comic artists reported to be working in webcomics in June 2015, while less than 15% of male comic artists did.[1][2]

In contrast with mainstream American comics, webcomics are primarily written and drawn by women and gender variant people. Because of the self-published nature of webcomics, the internet has become a successful platform for social commentary, as well as lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) expression.
