The Ormes Society

Speaking of the Glyph Awards...

The Ormes Society, named after the legendary pioneering cartoonist of color Jackie Ormes, is a new organization dedicated to supporting black female comic creators and promoting the inclusion of black women in the comics industry as creators, characters and consumers.

The Ormes Society just launched last week, and Society founder Cheryl Lynn will be on The African-American Panel at NY Comic Con this Saturday Febuary 24.
