Now we’re delighted to welcome her to the Top Shelf family and share her with you all. Check out the online preview and pre-order now! UNDERWIRE by Jennifer Hayden “Hayden’s work reminds me of why I began drawing comics, and why I continue. They’re comforting, straightforward and strongly connected to life.” — Gabrielle Bell, author of LUCKY and CECIL AND JORDAN IN NEW YORK “Underwire explores the funny, and often absurd, aspects of being a lady. Cheers to the artist for spotlighting female characters… and, hopefully, getting more women psyched about comics.” — Whitney Matheson, USA TODAY “With a busy black-and-white palette of comforting cartoon grit, Hayden recalls Robert and Aline Crumb in this offkey anthem to misfit domesticity.” — Adam McGovern, COMIC CRITIQUE Sometimes you just gotta pick yourself up by your brastraps. UNDERWIRE collects the wise and witty autobiographical comics of an captivating new voice: Jennifer Hayden, cartoonist and politically incorrect mother of two. She may not have all the answers, but she’s not gonna let that stop her from enjoying the prime of her life — her forties! Since its internet debut at ACT-I-VATE.com, UNDERWIRE has attracted praise for its sharp tongue, enchanting style, and warm wisdom. These everyday observations — about womanhood, parenthood, growing up, and rocking out — add up to something not only funny, but also quite profound. After a few stories, you might even feel like a member of the family. Now, for the first time in print, Top Shelf presents twenty-two stories from the beloved webcomic, plus seventeen new pages of comics and art created exclusively for this collection. |
