Open Season On Alexander Pope

It's that time of year again!

The time when I adapt into comic form another canto of what is both the world's most controversial yet also most innocuous work of literature:

Here is a sneak peak! The full canto will appear in WashU KaPOW Comics Club's Spring Anthology! and it's now in glorious technicolor, since I have a better tablet and more will to deprive myself of sleep.

Please follow me and Ariel the sylph as we both descend into madness and hair-centered monomania. It's got everything you love about the Passover/Easter season—springtime, the Peeps color scheme, celebration—without any of that bothersome "self-deprivation" or "deeper reflection" or "humility" stuff because who needs God when you have CRAVATS AND GLITTER.

Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
