Tales from the Leather Nun

Dave Sheridan’s Tales from the Leather Nun, launched in 1973 by Last Gasp, is a singular, transgressive artifact of the underground comix era. Over its single-issue run, Sheridan crafted a raw, satirical fusion of sex, violence, and religious iconography, pushing the boundaries of the medium’s content and distribution. This title stands as a bold, unflinching example of the counterculture’s determination to challenge censorship and explore taboo subjects through comics.
