Following up on a story we posted last Friday about harassment in the comic book industry, there’s been a few more good articles:

• Anne Scherbina, a former DC Comics employee, writes, “I Am Not The Other Woman. I Am Another Voice,” sharing her own unfortunate experiences with creator Brian Wood.
• Creator Kate Leth took on the wider issue in her new comic strip at Comics Alliance.
• Creator/editor Mariah Huehner some very personal experiences she’s had with others in the comic book industry on her blog in, “Silent All These Years.”
• And here’s a pretty detailed timeline of all the events that lead us to where we are now by Livejournal user beccatoria.
