"8 Pillars of Gay Culture" is a sharp, incisive exploration of identity and community, presented in the distinctive style of Drawn & Quarterly’s early 1990s run. With clean, typeset lettering and a cover by Luc Giard that captures the era’s DIY aesthetic, this issue stands as a quiet landmark in queer comics history. Look for upcoming releases like Peepshow #1 and Yummy Fur #26 on the ads within.

In "Whipped-up in Wichita," a family's pilgrimage to a Wichita abortion clinic spirals into chaos when the matriarch, a fervent religious zealot, arrives with a package of dynamite and her kin in tow. The story unfolds with biting satire, turning a tense political moment into a darkly absurd family drama.
