oh my god i forgot to post my absolute favorite strip from gay comix (issue #2, 1981)
#this collection is full of so many hilarious vignettes
#between the fictional and biographical they range from hilarious to saddening but theyre all candid looks at
#lgbt life in the 60s 70s and 80s
#id recommend it if you're interested in older underground work
#edit: for ppl who notice the opening blurb i will say this:
#1. Many artists in the underground comix scene (yes the lgbt ones too) delighted in being overly provocative for the sake of it
#hence the cringeworthy 'political unity is not the goal' line
#2. i worried abt this too when i started going thru the issues but there are quite a few strips and comics focusing on the trans experience
#that said. there are unfortunately not a lot of transgender artists involved in this collection
#3. given the preceding two points i think its fair to say that a good chunk of the strips in gay comix just. Suck
#but like they actually said it's important that we're capable of recognizing that a full 40 years down the line
#so we can actually learn something from the life experiences the mistakes and even the lack of perspective tht sm of these artists displayed
