LDComics is the largest women-led comics forum, open to all. We plan to unleash the power of comics by providing a platform for creators to share their work and opportunities for professional development. We believe comics can be used as a tool to question and challenge injustices and inequalities in society on a global scale. Their accessibility as a storytelling medium has created fertile ground for a wealth of casual creators and minority voices.
