Inner City Romance

Inner City Romance returns in a 2019 revival from the publisher that originally launched the series, bringing back the raw, socially conscious anthology format that defined its original 1970s run. The single issue to date collects new and archival material, anchored by the uncompromising vision of its original creator, Guy Colwell, whose work here blends gritty urban realism with sharp political commentary. This revival matters as a continuation of a landmark independent comic that gave voice to marginalized communities and challenged mainstream comics' boundaries, reaffirming the series' place as a touchstone of underground comix.
