Savage Love, the Comic

Dan Savage's long-running sex-advice column gets a comic-book spin with this two-issue series from Bear Bones Press, published in 1994. Illustrated by frequent collaborator Ellen Forney, Savage Love, the Comic translates Savage's frank, humorous, and often politically charged relationship and sex advice into sequential art. A quirky artifact from the early days of the column's cultural influence, it showcases how Forney's distinctive, expressive linework brought Savage's written voice to a visual medium.
