There are alot of female characters in comics. But for some reason, there are a HUGE amount of redheads. Like... ALOT.
The only reasons I can think of are either:
A- The creators have some kind of fetish (I really hope not)
B- It is easier to ink and print. Similar to that of how Hulk went from grey to green because of printing benefits, I think that they made/make alot of female character's hair red because it is easier to print and ink with dynamic shading and effect. Of course, this doesn't apply to male characters, much, because they usually have masks on that conceal there identities.
I don't know! Maybe it's just a coincidence (I doubt it). But it is strange to me such a small majority of the world's population has read hair, yet so many females in comics seem to be redheaded.
What are your thoughts?
