Girls With Slingshots made its debut on October 1, 2004 at SPX in Bethesda, Maryland, in both online and bound paper formats. Starting from the black and white webcomic that was originally updated twice a week, it has become a self-sufficient color webcomic, updated five times a week from Monday to Friday.

The two main characters in the manga, Hazel and Jamie, made a name for themselves in the 1996 manga "Hazelnuts", which was an unexpected prequel to "GWS". The title of GWS is based on Danielle's frequent requests at comic conventions to draw a girl holding a gun (she draws guns poorly, so she draws slingshots).

GWS has been included in ten books, each containing 200 comics, which can be purchased through TopatoCo. The color hardcover versions of all comics (as well as some additional materials) will be available at the end of 2017/2018.

Each comic is hand engraved and inked on paper, and then colored using Photoshop. Danielle intermittently sells original GWS comics on her Etsy page.

GWS was completed in 2015 and was re released starting from the second day of the first update. It is now painted in full color by our fearless colorist Laeluu.

Girls With Slingshots

Danielle Colsetto is the artist and creator of 'Girls With Slingshots'. She created her first comic strip at the age of 8, the first being "Fat Cat," which openly plagiarized Garfield. She started creating "Hazelnut" in high school and published a semi autobiographical comic about super high school students called "The Wanderer" in the student newspaper of Shepard College (as well as "Popular Images" and "World Famous Comics"). She also briefly published a comic book called 'Larry and Caroline' in the Hagerstown Pioneer Post.

In October 2004, she began creating "Girls With Slingshots". By 2007, with the first print run of "Girls With Slingshots" and the sale of other merchandise and artwork, she began working full-time on this comic strip. Since then, it has been updated 5 times a week and always at some bad time.

In addition to World Newsweek, Danielle also wrote and illustrated "Batman's New Adventure" for World Newsweek, replacing Peter Bagger. She also created three manga novels called "Adventure Treasure" for "BOOM.

Danielle comes from IJamsville, Maryland and currently resides in a 230 year old house in Sheppardstown, West Virginia. She also has two cats at home, Smudge and Ellie (also known as Fluffy and Sprinkles). She enjoys drinking tea, hiking, traveling, cooking, gardening, and eating local cuisine because she is a hippie. Danielle once taught illustration at her alma mater Shepard University and also served as a guest teacher for graphic narrative students at the Danish animation studio Viborg. She is a lifelong Girl Scout.

Laeluu is the color brain behind many Girls With Slingshot comics! She started working as a color intern at GWS in 2013 and was hired after graduating that year because with her help, I couldn't imagine doing this job without her. The rest of these resumes will be written in first person because I want to boast about these people and write 'Danielle thinks she's great!' It sounds strange

In the past year or two at GWS, Laeluu has colored about half of the comics, giving me much-needed rest every week. You can determine that the manga is Laeluu colored by finding her signature near my manga, or when you see beautifully presented textures or fabrics, you can assume that it is her work!

Now that the manga is finished, Laeluu is coloring the first 1000 manga one by one, changing them from black and white to color so that we can share them online every day (we call them "post party comics" or "pursuers").

Stephanie Zuppo is a Spring 2014 intern at Girls With Slingshots! If you have participated in any aspect of the 2014 Slingshot Across America tour, you may have exchanged emails with Stephanie.

Stephanie obtained a Master of Arts degree from the Cartoon Research Center in Vermont and worked remotely for me there, mainly handling emails related to GWS, compiling lists, designing promotional materials, and teaching me things that only people in their twenties would know.

You can see Stephanie's works on Stephaniezuppo.com or her Tumblr aioazech.tumblr.com! She is not just a clerk; She is actually a very talented cartoonist herself!

Nicole Roberts was my intern for the fall of 2014! She is a graphic design student at Shepard University and will soon be interning at Disney in the fall.

You can view Nicole's works on readysetcreat.tumblr.com or www.ready-set-creat.com, or follow her internship experience on girlwithinternships.tumblr.com! Because she is a witty woman.

By the way, if you have learned anything from these resumes, I hope that if you are in college and need an internship, many of us self-employed people really need help! So feel free to ask!
