The timing for this tweet by Campbell is amazing

Last week, J. Scott Campbell posted the following tweet featuring a Gen13 story he wrote/illustrated to celebrate a quarter century since the Wildstorm line was originally created:
We see in the background a televised broadcast of a woman's march calling to stop the war on women while Caitlin Fairchild has a conversation with team mentor John Lynch. I don't know if it was Campbell's intention, but this could tie in perfectly with the past week's Harvey Weinsten scandal, who's been exposed as a serial harasser and rapist, and the discoveries have led to a lot of performers speaking out about the nastier side of Hollywood. Even Weinstein's brother Bob's been implicated, along with Ben Affleck and Oliver Stone. That's the real war on women taking place out there.
Again, I don't know if that's what Campbell's short story for 25 years of Wildstorm anniversary was intended to reflect in its political allusions, but he sure chose the right week to post this picture, as now it'll echo resulting sentiments on Hollywood perfectly.
