Shona is the best fantasy series of the recent years
As the world of comics has evolved, so has the representation of women in action and adventure genres. One such series that stands out in this regard is Shona. Shona is a strong female protagonist who challenges the conventions of gender roles and stereotypes in comics. I recently read about this incredible character created by the brilliant author Stefano Labbia and i decided to write this article to explore the importance of this series and its contribution to the representation of women in comics.

Lia Della Bordella (she/her)Published about a year ago in GeeksReview of 'Gilded'
In Gilded, #1 New York Times-bestselling author Marissa Meyer returns to the fairytale world with this haunting tale. Long ago cursed by the god of lies, a poor miller's daughter has developed a talent for spinning stories that are fantastical and spellbinding and entirely untrue. Or so everyone believes. When one of Serilda's outlandish tales draws the attention of the sinister Erlking and his undead hunters, she finds herself swept away into a grim world where ghouls and phantoms prowl the earth and hollow-eyed ravens track her every move. The king orders Serilda to complete the impossible task of spinning straw into gold, or be killed for telling falsehoods. In her desperation, Serilda unwittingly summons a mysterious boy to her aid. He agrees to help her… for a price. Love isn't meant to be part of the bargain. Soon Serilda realizes that there is more than one secret hidden in the castle walls, including an ancient curse that must be broken if she hopes to end the tyranny of the king and his wild hunt forever.

I've written about a number of villainesses on Vocal, usually from TV, film, or some true crime stories. For this story, it's a first--delving from the world of comic books. In this case, it's from Archie Comics. Why? It's simple. Riverdale will kick off its seventh and final season. I beamed when I learned about this show seven years ago. I've been an Archie Comics fan for 30 years, and when I learned about a show centered on the Archie characters, I was in! These were not the characters I grew up reading, but I was all in because of that!

BlankmarksPublished about a year ago in GeeksI love Shona comics. Here is why...
I got a confession to make: Shona, the sword & sorcery comics series created by the famous writer Stefano Labbia, is a personal favorite of mine. This comics series are set in a fantasy world full of adventure, magic, and epic battles. What sets Shona's comics apart from other traditional sword and sorcery stories is the central protagonist is a strong and fierce female warrior named Shona.

This critically acclaimed show is a fantastic depiction of human relationships, ranching, traditions, and the beauty of the Wild West. The show skillfully blends the old and contemporary elements of the West, offering viewers a unique perspective on rural life in modern-day America.
