People ask me why I make my characters females all the time.
Truth be told, most of the characters are draw on their natural gender, however, the comics which had more pages (tf2, starcraft) featured mainly girls.
For TF2, I just wanted the mercenaries to interact with a female cast and easily double the number of characters avaliable.N
For Starcraft, I wanted people to empathyze with the zerg. It's far easier to hook for space bugs if they don't look like space bugs.
Now Kratos? Maybe because he is so manly, so agressive I found making him a women hilarious. People come to expect to see all kind of genderbend here, and I am a crowd pleaser.
Or maybe I just did it for the lulz.
Happy New Year!
