Seems there's a bit of a wave of allies in comics these days. Recently,
Paul Cornell, a celebrated comic (and television) writer, decided that
he's not going to be on comic book panels that don't have some gender
parity:
If I'm on, at any convention this year, a panel that doesn't have a 50/50 gender split (I'll settle for two out of five), I'll hop off that panel, and find a woman to take my place.

Yay for Paul.
And now, Si Spurrier has followed Paul's example, and given up his seat on a panel to Tammy Taylor. I hope this trend continues!
