Emma

Dessinatrice de trucs moches mais qui veulent dire des choses. Féministe inclusive, antiraciste, anticapitaliste.

Emma's strips have a history of going viral. "You Should've Asked" was viewed on mommy blogs around the world, and an article about her in thew French magazine L'Express drew 1.8 million viewers -- a record since the site was created.

A former member of the collective Stop harcèlement de rue (Stop Street Harassment), she is confident that her feminist beliefs have now made it onto the "information superhighway" for good.

Barbara Stok

I used to be a drummer in a punkrock band before I became a comic artist. What is a good life? That is the common thread in my work. I like to write and draw stories about minimalism and resistance, about making important choices, about people who dare to go against the grain for a higher purpose.

My book ‘Vincent’ is published in more than twenty countries around the world. 'The philosopher, the dog and the wedding' is my latest graphic novel, about one of the first female philosophers from ancient Greece. It is translated into English, Spanish and French, and translations in Korea, China and Albany are on the way.
