Most Memorable Moments of Marvel Women

Folks, I am so sorry.  Work and life got in that way, and I’m running at LEAST a week behind on this.  Ideally I’d like to get posts up starting on next Monday, the 7th.  But to do that, I need your help!

Have a favourite moment in this list?  Want to write 300-500 words (or more if you feel like it) on the moment and have it featured on the blog?  If so PLEASE email us at girlsreadcomicstoo (at) gmail.com  Help us out and share your love for your favourite Marvel women!
