Gail Simone is an American comic book writer known for her work on DC Comics' Birds of Prey. She is also the first female ongoing writer for the character Wonder Woman.
Simone first came to the attention of comic book publishers through her website Women in Refrigerators, which listed all the instances in which women were victims of violent attacks in comics or used solely as a plot device in a male character's story. She also wrote a popular humor column, "You'll All Be Sorry!", which appeared on the website Comic Book Resources.
Her first comic book scripting jobs were for Bongo Comics' Simpsons series. She then moved to Marvel as a contributor to Deadpool and a relaunch of Agent X.
Following a dispute with Marvel, Simone moved to DC Comics, where she writes Birds of Prey, the creator-owned comic Welcome to Tranquility and Wonder Woman. She will also be writing an ongoing Secret Six series with penciller Nicola Scott.
