Cannonball

Kelsey Wroten's Cannonball (2019–present, Uncivilized Books) is a raw, intimate series that follows a young woman navigating the messy intersections of art, ambition, and queer identity in contemporary New Orleans. Wroten's boldly expressive linework and unflinching dialogue capture the protagonist's chaotic interior life as she stumbles through relationships, creative burnout, and self-destruction. This debut issue establishes a voice that feels both brutally honest and tender, marking Wroten as a distinctive new talent in autobiographical comics.
