Lynn Johnston on women cartoonists

TOM HEINTJES: Are we left to conclude, then, that perhaps subtlety is not commercial and that's one reason for the relative lack of women cartoonists？
LYNN JOHNSTON: I think there are lots of women cartoonists. I think they're working at ad agencies, and other people are getting credit for their brilliance. They are animators, they do cards, they are everywhere, wonderful, talented women cartoonists. But very few have come into this comics field, for whatever reason.
