Juicy Mother is a cartoon anthology with work by and about queers, women and people of colour. Showcasing work by such well-known artists as Alison Bechdel, Howard Cruse, Diane DiMassa and Ariel Schrag, this is a fascinating book. It includes comics about an older butch dyke and her Lolita, an African-American gay man coming of age, an Arab Muslim dyke searching for her identity, two big hairy men getting married, a cynical Latina teen encountering aliens and a wild cartoon jam. In a genre primarily dominated by straight white men, this makes a refreshing change.
