1st printing. Story and art by Diane DiMassa. Introduction by Sarah Schulman. Hothead Paisan, a murderous icon of the 90s LGBTQ+ 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 nearly thirty years 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 DiMassas 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. Hotheads rage is stoked by her inner demon, Personality #2, but sometimes tempered with the help of Roz, her friend who offers Zen wisdom and tough love, and Chicken, her cat and constant companion. Softcover, 456 pages, B&W. Mature Readers Cover price $34.95.
