San Francisco was a birthplace for underground comics. It was also a birthplace for the queer comics movement with a pioneering indie comic called GAY COMIX. Edited by Howard Cruse and San Francisco artist Robert Triptow, GAY COMIX was one of the first comics to present stories by and for the LGBT community.
Robert Triptow and early gay comics creators Burton Clarke, Vaughn Frick, Jeff Krell (JAYSON), Lee Marrs (PUDGE, GIRL BLIMP), Trina Robbins (IT AIN'T ME, BABE, WIMMEN'S COMIX), and Mary Wings (COME OUT COMIX) take you on a fascinating trip back to the eighties and the beginnings of queer comic books.
Moderated by Justin Hall (TRUE TRAVEL TALES, GLAMAZONIA THE UNCANNY SUPER TRANNY).
