“I love writing comics too much.” — Marjorie Liu

Growing up as Chinese-American, as someone who experienced racism, questions of 'otherness' are always at the forefront of my mind.

I'm really bothered by questions of humanity, questions of war, questions of slavery.

'Monstress' has been hard because I want to keep writing longer, but I can't.

To all the young kids of color - and not so young - people who want to use their voices, who are thinking, 'This seems difficult because I don't see myself out there,' I tell you, you must be persistent because we need you. We need you so, so badly.
