Tits & Clits

The groundbreaking, women-edited comics anthology that served as an antidote + rebuke to male-dominated underground comix is now collected in a single volume for the first time. In 1972, underground cartoonists Joyce Farmer + Lyn Chevli produced Tits & Clits — a funny, rowdy, raucous underground comix series about female sexuality that one reviewer described as “the ultimate in vaginal politics” — and became the first American women ever credited with writing, drawing + publishing their own comic books.

Now, for the first time in half a century, a new generation of readers will be shocked, entertained, enlightened + scandalized by the bold satirical cartoonists that comprised the band of sisters in Tits & Clits. In addition to reprinting the seven-issue run of the Tits & Clits series, this collection also includes in their entirety two classic solo comics from 1972 written + drawn by Farmer and Chevli — Abortion Eve + Pandora’s Box. Also included is an introductory essay providing context to Tits & Clits’ place in the history of women’s cartooning by the book’s editor, Samantha Meier. Hardcover. 368 pages.
