Bewildering Intimacies

Roger May's Bewildering Intimacies (1977–1981) is a four-issue, self-contained comic series that explores the quiet, often disorienting emotional landscapes of human connection. Published during the late underground comix era, May's work stands out for its introspective, almost literary tone, focusing on the subtle tensions and fragile bonds between characters rather than overt plot. Though brief, the series is a notable example of the period's shift toward more personal and psychologically nuanced storytelling in independent comics.
