Amy Okuda shares her thoughts on The Guild and playing the role of Tink. About four years ago I auditioned for a pilot about online gamers, and I was reading for the role of a cute Asian girl whose “face does not match her mouth and attitude.” At the time I had no idea what online gaming was, or anything about gaming culture. I auditioned thinking it was a television pilot, not knowing it was a nonpaying video for YouTube. I was naive and just starting out as an actor, so I was disappointed when I realized my very first role ever wasn’t going to make me a television star. But The Guild has taken me on a whole new journey I never thought I would be embarking on—a journey that not many actresses get to go on. I...

Any halfway decent artist can draw a pretty girl tied up. But to take a string of... er... specialized art commissions and make them into one of the most appealing, accessible, and smart superhero satires out there? THAT's genius. And the result is Adam Warren's Empowered, which started out as a running bondage gag and grew into one of the funniest, strangest, sweetest comics I've ever read. Empowered is about the misadventures of an unlikely superheroine--the eponymous Empowered. Emp's life sucks: she's got an alien super-suit flimsy enough to throw the most body-confident supermodel into a tailspin (and prone to tattering at just the wrong time); super-hero teammates who couldn't care less about her (when...
