The Plain Janes

Cecil Castellucci and Jim Rugg introduced the world to a group of outcast teens who form a secret art-guerilla collective in the suburbs, all while sharing the name "Jane." Published by DC's Minx imprint, this single-issue graphic novel from 2007 launched a heartfelt, punk-infused story about friendship, self-expression, and reclaiming public space after a traumatic event. It remains a standout for its earnest, character-driven take on teenage rebellion and the power of art.
