Kelly Sue DeConnick Biography

Kelly Sue DeConnick is one of the most popular and richest Writer who was born on July 15, 1970 in Portland, United States. Kelly Sue DeConnick (born July 15, 1970) is an American comic book writer and editor and English–language adapter of manga.

DeConnick’s first published comic book story was a five-page text story published in CSI: Crime Scene Investigations – Dominos #5 (Dec. 2004). She wrote the Osborn limited series in 2011 which was drawn by Emma Ríos.

DeConnick is a self-proclaimed feminist and uses her position in comics to promote feminism and feminist ideas. She started the #VisibleWomen movement on Twitter in March 2016 “to disabuse folks of the notion that women comic artists are rare, to get eyes on said artists & to get them work.” With the help of this movement, women (or others who do not identify as male) submit their works on social media to increase their visibility in the comics industry. It is open to colorists, letterers, inkers, and writers. Rules for submissions can be found on the website of the production company owned by her and her husband, Milkfed Criminal Masterminds.

DeConnick is married to fellow comic book writer Matt Fraction with whom she has two children, Henry Leo and Tallulah Louise. Each year around the anniversary of the day she quit drinking (eighteen years as of June 2018), DeConnick posts an update on social media about her years of sobriety and offers advice to those who are still struggling with their addictions.

At a 2013 convention panel, she stated that “I am willing to make people uncomfortable so that my daughter doesn’t have to!” Following up in an interview the following year, she explained “I don’t think it’s a goal to make other people uncomfortable. It’s something I’m willing to do. I do purposefully try to push myself out of my comfort zone. Which is fairly cliché, but one of those clichés that got there for a reason.”

In 2012, DeConnick attended Dundrum International Comics Expo as a guest. When an associated Irish comic news site referred to her only in relation to her husband, fans and fellow professionals created a “not the wife of Matt Fraction” meme in response. Following the attention, the website amended their listings. In 2014, Graham Crackers, a Chicago-based comic shop jokingly referred to DeConnick as “Mrs. Matt Fraction” when reviewing her series Bitch Planet, referring to Matt Fraction as “Mr. Kelly Sue DeConnick” in the same set of reviews. Fans accused them of underestimating the complicated history of referring to a woman by her husband’s name and demanded she receive proper recognition for her work. The comic shop later issued an apology and revised the names of the couple on the reviews.

DeConnick also proposed the “Sexy Lamp Test” adjunct to the Bechdel test. In a 2012 interview, she said “If you can replace your female character with a sexy lamp and the story still basically works, maybe you need another draft. They have to be protagonists, not devices.” In response to male fans’ criticism of Captain Marvel, DeConnick created her series Bitch Planet. She explained, “If you want to see ‘angry feminist,’ then I will show it to you.” Bitch Planet is a dystopian series where “non-compliant” women are sent to a “correction facility” on another planet. DeConnick cites Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale and RoboCop as influences in the creation of Bitch Planet. In Bitch Planet, women who do not follow the rules of the patriarchy and are put in jail are given “Non-Compliant” tattoos. Many fans of the comic have gotten these same symbols tattooed on their bodies because they connect with the women in the comic. She brought it up in a 99U talk and said “You don’t get that tattoo to celebrate something in the book, you get that tattoo because the book celebrates something in you.”

According to a 2014 study, the fastest growing demographic for comic readers was young adult women, crediting DeConnick’s comic Pretty Deadly as one of the titles capturing this growing demographic’s attention.
