favourite faces for favourite mythic ladies: Hua Mulan with Ling Ling Kong
The sound of one sigh after another, As Mulan weaves at the doorway.
No sound of the loom and shuttle, Only that of the girl lamenting.
Ask her of whom she thinks, Ask her for whom she longs.
“There is no one I think of, There is no one I long for.
Last night I saw the army notice, The Khan is calling a great draft.
A dozen volumes of battle rolls, Each one with my father’s name.
My father has no grown-up son, And I have no elder brother.
I’m willing to buy a horse and saddle, To go to battle in my father’s place.”
Sometimes women warriors have lives outside of slaying beasts and decimating armies! Not often, though.
This is one of two pieces I have in the WOMEN WARRIORS ZINE that I have been putting together along with my two mighty collaborators Abby Boeh and Julia Scott! This FANTASTIC BEAST OF A ZINE will be debuting at MoCCA and include the artwork of over 25 truly excellent illustrators, so please check it out come April 6th & 7th in NYC!
Making a big zine like this has been a truly amazing experience. I’m blown away by the amount of interest in the project, but above all, I’m truly humbled by the variety and sheer talent of everyone who’s contributed.
I’ve always loved this concept, switching the “traditional” gender roles of a warrior and their lover. This is beautiful.
