HOT, THROBBING DYKES TO WATCH OUT FOR - A rarely available first edition copy of the seventh installment of the longest-running queer serial comic (strips #222 - 263, plus intro and 47-page "Sense and Sensuality"). The bi-weekly strip ran for 25 years with the characters aging in real time, a feat very few comic strips accomplished or even attempted (GASOLINE ALLEY having set the bar very high). As always, Ms. Bechdel uses her story-telling prowess to adroitly skewer the torrent of ideology and orthodoxy about to crash on the shores of the new millennium. HOT, THROBBING DTWOF explores the existential questions we all asked as the century came to an end: Are Clarice and Toni doing it anymore now that they have a child? What is squeaky clean Sparrow like under all that save-the-world goodness? Will Lois tire of her quickie there's-always-another-girl-to-bed encounters? Will Mo ever figure out what it is she's been searching for? CONDITION: Near Fine/As New. 8.5" X 5.5", 144 BW pages in glossy color soft cover wraps. First edition. First printing unstated but assumed - Firebrand Books in 1998 continued to release superior material but rarely sell out an initial printing. This listing is posted by an actual human, not Ai. All photos/scans are of the item for sale, not stock images from the web. Condition and descriptions were written by the aforementioned human except parts taken from the back-cover blurb, I certainly couldn't come up with anything better .…

While M - our lesbian-feminist everywoman - looks on askance, sexy babe Lois and postmodern femme-top Sydney spearhead the thrust into sex toys and higher sales at Madwimmin Books.
In these days of girls writing erotica about boys, and boys writing erotica about girls (so what's new?), Alison Bechdel exposes her familiar cast of characters carnal mores.
