Trots and Bonnie

Shulie Firestone’s Trots and Bonnie is a sharp, feminist comic strip that originally ran in the 1970s and was revived in 2021 by The New York Review of Books. Centered on the free-spirited young Bonnie and her intellectual, talking dog Trots, the series blends satirical humor with poignant social commentary on gender, politics, and everyday life. Though only one issue has been published in this revival, Firestone’s work remains a cult touchstone for its unflinching, witty take on the personal and the political.
