Slutburger #5
In "Rock Bottom, part 2," Mary Fleener delivers a raw, intimate follow-up to her breakout series, weaving quiet tension with sudden chaos as a seemingly routine bar performance spirals into a brawl. After slipping away from the fray, Mary returns home to find her ex-boyfriend has thrown her a surprise party—unexpected, awkward, and charged with unresolved history. The story, written, drawn, inked, and lettered entirely by Fleener, showcases her distinctive voice and visual storytelling in a 1995 release from Drawn & Quarterly, with cover art by Fleener.
