Check out the thread containing all the pics in their original sizes right here.  Some of them are quite a bit larger than our tables will allow.

Have a tip we should know? tips@themarysue.com

Instead she stumbled into a great job: founding and running this very website (she's Editor at Large now, very fancy). She's spoken at events like Geek Girl Con, New York Comic Con, and Comic Book City Con, wants to get a Batwoman tattoo and write a graphic novel, and one of her canine teeth is in backwards.
