A novel is 400 pages; it's an endurance race. There's no artist, so I have to describe everything. It's all prose. Whereas with comics, I can rely on the artist. It's really wonderful to have that collaboration and to not always feel the burden of describing everything myself and also just to have someone who can paint the world.

As women, we have to deal with constant threats of violence. And it's in our media and fiction, too. So we internalize it.

Take 'Ex Machina.' Everyone said it was one of the great feminist works of science fiction. But what I found disappointing is that everything about the main female character is defined by men.

Because there are almost no men in 'Monstress,' we're focused completely on women. It's removed from traditional structures.
