Comics tales from the Zap cartoonist about senior citizen skateboarders, the Leather Nun, and much more!

Spain Rodriguez’s most memorable characters are ferocious femmes fatale: gorgeous and deadly women who can slash and slaughter as fast as any man. You’ll find them all in this volume — Nasty Elaine, Mara, Mistress of the Void, Sangrella, and his ultimate independent woman, Big Bitch. This also includes a selection of interviews with strong women whom he loved and who inspired him. These stories appeared in Zap, Weirdo, Thrasher Comics, and many other publications as part of Spain’s prolific contributions to the comic medium over a six-decade career.
