my new comic is up today! catch it on the medium in glorious web-optimized form. this one’s a 14-page doozy that i knocked out with my BFFL amber solemnburger just in time to hit chicago zine fest with some south side feminist herstory. 

all of my love to amber, for pouring her heart into the original research we needed to make such a robust piece of history, and heyanniemok, for doing the best cover design i could have asked for <3
