Life of the Party: The Complete Autobiographical Collection #[nn]

Dec 1996 · Fantagraphics · 14.95 USD; 20.95 CAD
“Turn Off That Jungle Music!”

In "Turn Off That Jungle Music!", Mary Fleener delivers a sharp, intimate slice of life as a musician navigating the chaos of a bar gig that takes a sudden turn when a fight erupts in the crowd. After escaping the scene, she returns home to find her ex-boyfriend has thrown her a surprise party—unexpected, awkward, and impossible to ignore. Drawn, inked, lettered, and penciled by Fleener herself, this autobiographical story captures the raw, unfiltered energy of a moment caught between performance and personal space, all on a 14.95 USD comic from 1996.
