Slap me for being sexist - I'd assumed that the awesome and demigod-like web cartoonist Oglaf was a bloke. It turns out she's an Australian called Trudy Cooper, who also writes a graphic novel called Platinum Grit. And there's an interview with her here on Yuhmm.
(The strip at top is even more amusing if you are currently reading the collected Savage Sword of Conan volumes, like wot I am.)

Oooooooooh - Thank you Danielle! It may be cold out there but I'm all warm inside now!
I still think you should write a Conan story...
I completely made the same assumptiong, and was psyched on such an orsum, primal level when I discovered the writer was a woman. It was a joyous moment of pure and unadultered sisterly love.
Mine's more of a huge crush...
;-)
What would you like to see in a Conan story written by me, Chris? Hot Stygian vixens, I'm guessing ... Though I'd rather like to see Conan in chains, being horribly punished...
hm..i wanna see conan in chains too...:-)
Hrm, didn't guess the gender, but didn't really think about it. Then again, I usually play the gender game myself, so I assume everyone is neutral until proven otherwise.
But, I still adore Oglaf. Specially the dwarfs. :)
This is my favorite comic evah. -swoon-
