  1. Multiversity Comics –

    “Throughout the comic, Christensen and Blas hit home that the fight against bigotry is all our fight and yes, it’s empowering. Mama Tits Saves the World tells us that it gets better, that it’s getting better, but it also reminds us not to neglect our history.” Read Matthew Garcia’s whole review on Multiversity Comics.

  2. Pepe –

    I loved the comic. It was to short though. Great message and illustration.

    A Waste of Time by: Rick Worley $7.99 – $19.99

    The first full-length collection of irreverent and sweet comic strips from Rick Worley. Featuring a foreword by StevieD and EvilJeff from the Comic Book Queers podcast.

    Foul-mouthed, sex-obsessed and misanthropic, Rick is no ordinary cute cartoon rabbit. The strips in this hysterically funny, surprisingly sweet collection range from fantasy tales about a closeted fundamentalist teddy bear, an oversexed fox, and a doomed robot love affair to autobiographical comics that share maybe a little too much information about the author. In their quest for contentment, the characters fail, fail, and sometimes fail again, but they never stop looking. There’s always the chance they’ll find that one person who was worth the search.

    Or maybe not.

    RAVES:

    “There’s a brutal frankness and honesty coming from these foxes and teddy bears that you rarely see anywhere else. Comics are the one of the last havens to be truly offensive and beautifully unapologetic.” — from the foreword by StevieD and EvilJeff from the Comic Book Queers podcast.

    “Beautifully drawn, hilarious, wistful, profane and very human. Rick Worley’s A Waste of Time knocked me out.” — Robert Kirby, creator of Curbside, Boy Trouble and THREE.

    “Rick Worley’s insightful A Waste of Time comic strips are simultaneously tender and perverse—like his bunny.” — Howard Cruse, author of Stuck Rubber Baby and Wendel.
