Two teenage girls meet as they start a new school, and bond over a manga series they both used to love but never finished

As they track down the volumes, they grow closer

Rep: disabled black lesbian, bisexual latina with ptsd

This graphic novel manages to pack a lot in relatively few pages: fandom, trauma, activism, romance...

Okay, I just noticed another detail from ‘Aromancing of Gwendolyn Poole’, in another re-read years on.

In ‘GwenPool Strikes Back’, Gwen’s reaction to accidentally kissing the real Reed Richards instead of the testing cardboard cutout was that it made her feel “kinda gross” and just want to curl up with Jeff — one of those not-meant-as-ace lines which still resonated with the ace (it is still funny how there were so many across different authors that happened to do so).

And you made that same “kinda gross” line into the focus of a MONOLOGUE in ‘Love Unlimited’ #47, as part of Gwen’s talk with Julie, before she even knew what asexuality was. A great callback — well done.

Separately, why did you have another character named Ronnie (separate from Big Ronnie) in the last chapter?

Thanks!

Honestly, the Ronnie/Big Ronnie thing didn't occur to me. I love characters with masculine or non-gendered variations on feminine names like Veronica/Ronnie, so sometimes i double up without realizing it.
