Mel's Story: Surviving Military Sexual Assault

G. B. Trudeau, creator of Doonesbury, brings his signature blend of pathos and political insight to this standalone 2014 comic from Andrews McMeel. The story focuses on Mel, a character from the Doonesbury universe, as she navigates the aftermath of military sexual assault. Trudeau both writes and draws this single-issue work, using the medium to give a deeply personal and unflinching look at a difficult subject. It remains a poignant, standalone entry in the long-running Doonesbury saga.
