When Pia Guerra won The Joe Shuster Outstanding Canadian Comic Book Artist Award, it wasn't because she was girly. It was because she was the best of all the nominees (strangely enough, all men) :)
Personally, woman are a creative force that bring another "layer" to comic books. Girly? Nope. Intelligent. (think Gail Simone on Birds of Prey - regardless of the "sexy" art, the stories shine through. I can only imagine what she'll be doing with Wonder Woman)
If you're in Toronto for the Paradise Comics Toronto Comicon the first weekend of June, be sure to check out the Women of Comics symposium (http://www.womenofcomics.com/ if you haven't visited already :) )
