Hothead Paisan: Homicidal Lesbian Terrorist TP

(W) Diane DiMassa (CT) Jay Graham; Sarah Schulman
"Hothead is the backlash to the backlash." - Alison BechdelHothead Paisan, a murderous icon of the '90s lesbian comics scene, comes roaring back into print in this fresh edition (including a new interview and supplemental materials) of one of the funniest, sharpest, and most unexpectedly warm comics of the late twentieth century, still as shocking today as it was more than two decades ago.Hothead Paisan is an icon of the '90s lesbian DIY scene, a patron saint of those who wonder if going off the deep end is the only sane response to life in modern America.Diane DiMassa's Hothead starts out in a murderous frenzy - taking out a variety of chauvinists and creeps - but soon deepens into a reflection on oppression, self-destruction, and living it up outside the conservative norms of the '90s. Hothead's rage is sometimes tempered with the help of Personality #2, her defensive inner demon; Roz, her friend who offers Zen wisdom and tough love; and Chicken, her cat and constant companion. At long last, the most thoughtful homicidal maniac is back in print., 7.202506.9781681378619
