He Said/She Said Comics

A six-issue series from First Amendment Publishing, He Said/She Said Comics (1993–1994) paired the Victorian-era poetry of Algernon Charles Swinburne with the sharp, satirical artwork of Drew Friedman and Michael Apice. This unusual collaboration blended high-literary verse with the gritty, absurdist visual style of the early '90s alternative comics scene. The series stands as a curious artifact of the era's willingness to cross-pollinate classic literature with underground sensibilities.
