The Complete Hothead Paisan: Homocidal Lesbian Terrorist

A single-issue collection from Cleis Press, The Complete Hothead Paisan: Homocidal Lesbian Terrorist (1999–present) gathers the entirety of the underground comic strip by Diane DiMassa. This seminal work, which originated in the early 1990s, follows the rage-fueled, black-clad title character on a cathartic rampage against sexism and homophobia. DiMassa’s raw, punk-inflected art and unapologetically violent satire made it a defining artifact of queer and feminist counterculture, offering a furious, darkly humorous outlet for political anger.
