Feature for Soda and Telepaths on Warren Ellis

My thanks to Anthony Pollock from Soda and Telepaths for inviting me to write for his website. Anthony previously had me on the site podcast to talk about my comics work and Penny Dreadful.

For my first feature I chose to write about the allegations against Warren Ellis. This is a very upsetting situation for many people. As a creator Ellis’s work is notable for its ethical focus. I recommend the latest Wait, What podcast for a breakdown of the fallout.

But most of all we need to remember the women who are learning the extent to which they were manipulated by Ellis.

Here’s the piece.
