“Circling back to the Ladydrawers, my top selection from CAKE is a comic by Finnish creator Hanna-Pirita Lehkonen, translated into English as Short Gay Stories. It’s an essential queer comic that traces their journey of being nonbinary and demisexual. With grace and humor, Lehkonen’s story is told through seemingly unrelated superhero, fantasy, and genre vignettes. One after another, they lovingly illustrate (and color) some of the finest comics work I’ve seen in a long time.”
Finnish artist H-P Lehkonen's new comic Short Gay Stories was mentioned in the Geeks OUT round-up from CAKE 2017. Thanks y'all! The book is available in the US through our online store, Quimby's or soon at an independent bookstore near you!
