§ The March crew of Rep. John Lewis, Andrew Aydin and Nate Powell talk a little about why we need this message and these reminders now with EW's Joshua Rivera.

When I went to shows as a youngster, I thought of cons as a "safe space" believe it or not. Compared to the rock scene I was involved with, the relatively few women in comics were in a mostly hands off zone, mostly because most congoers were afraid of them, and should anything amiss happen there was a huge crew of friends to back you up. Notice that I just said "COMPARED TO THE ROCK SCENE"; it was far from a paradise of equality, but I felt safer at a comic con than I did at most places.
