ComiConverse Fantasy Football Draft – Part 2
I am a proud Blerd who lives in the Pacific Northwest home. My dad had an interest in comic books and instilled a passion for them in me. After decades of being a Marvel Fanatic, I got sucked into the DC whirlpool that was The New 52 launch. Currently, I am moving more into various independent and non-mainstream titles. I am a proud supporter of local artists, comic book creators, and comic book businesses. My two goals as a writer for ComiConverse are 1) to highlight new, little-known, and/or diverse titles, artists and writers, and work that is coming out of the smaller publication houses and 2) to address issues of race, gender, and sexual orientation in comics and the industry.
No. 8: Linebacker – Sawyer Silver (Rat Queens)
Sawyer Silver from Kurtis Wiebe's Tumblr, "Spinning Yarn"
Linebackers are known for their strength, speed, and determination, but it is their unwavering level of awareness that allows them to read the field and act according to how they predict the play will unfold. A former assassin and current Captain of the Guard, Sawyer has made a career out of being one step ahead of his opposition. He is also a committed leader who inspires loyalty and dedication.
Every defense needs a player like that.
