Book Description

Juicy Mother 2 October 12, 2007

Juicy Mother is what underground comics used to be. Lesbians and homosexuals populate these electric pages, and the scenes can be disturbing. Enlightening, too.”—The Boston Globe

The only current publication that showcases comix by queer artists, the ground-breaking graphic novel Juicy Mother 2 contains richly drawn tales that examine LGBT life from new perspectives: killer dykes chasing romance, a superhero tranny, how Hothead met Chicken, homeboys in love, lesbian internet hook-ups, West Hollywood parties, kids with queer parents, and many other unexpectedly funny depictions of how like-minded individuals have found each other for love, lust, and heartbreak. Thoroughly entertaining adult comix for gender pirates and sexual outlaws, Juicy Mother 2 contains depictions of sweet sex, rough sex, and confusing sex.

Featuring new work by: Alison Bechdel (Fun Home), Tristan Cowen, Howard Cruse (Stuck Rubber Baby), Diane DiMassa (Hothead Paisan), Jamaica Dyer, Michael Fahy, Lawrence Ferber, Fly, Leanne Franson, Katie Fricas, Chitra Ganesh, Justin Hall, Joan Hilty, Victor Hodge, David Hooper, G. B. Jones, David Kelly, Robert Kirby, Carrie McNinch, Erika Moen, Sara Rojo Parez, Karen Platt, Carlo Diego Quispe, Lawrence Schimel, Serpilla, and Scott Treleaven.

Jennifer Camper is a New York cartoonist and graphic artist. Her books include Rude Girls and Dangerous Women, and subGURLZ. Her cartoons and illustrations have appeared in many publications including The Village Voice, Ms., Out, and The Advocate, and her work has been exhibited in the United States and Europe. She lives in Brooklyn, New York.

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

This anthology of gay and lesbian cartoonists returns with an added thematic component, taking on various how we met stories. Like the first installment, this one is uneven, but includes several strong entries. Some of the best are from accomplished cartoonists. Leanne Franson's Under New Management combines breezy line work with a vaguely discomfiting romantic triangle to good effect, and Joan Hilty's Zion uses rough, kinetic inks to depict the sexual awakening of a young Mormon lesbian without needless self-indulgence. Newer artists also make strong contributions. David Hooper displays a strong grasp of some difficult formal techniques in his club-hopping story What Choice Do I Have. Jamaica Dyer overlays an honest voice, delicate pencils and gray wash to tell an inspiring story of reconnecting with a childhood sweetheart in Devan + Alix. And Lawrence Schimel and Sara Rojo Perez use children's book illustration techniques to offer a knowing, funny look at the adopted children of gay parents. Even the lesser entries offer something for the reader, although given her strong entry in the first volume (not to mention her award-winning graphic novel Fun Home), Alison Bechdel's absence from everything but a volume-ending cartoon jam is conspicuous.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome variety and unexpected fun, March 13, 2008
This review is from: Juicy Mother 2: How They Met (No. 2) (Paperback)
Loved this book! Twice as long as the first one, it's got old school like Howard Cruse and new school like Erika Moen. Cool weirdness from Ariel Schrag, and a sentimental one from Diane DiMassa. Really something for everyone ... one of the best comix anthologies around. Highly recommended!
