I'm having trouble connecting with this: it's not bad, I just don't care for it as much as I expected to, especially when reading two volumes one after another. There's a lot to unpack in this, but I just wasn't feeling up to it, so my feelings may change if I read this later on; I remember lovin...
Bitch Planet is one of those graphic novels everyone seems to recommend. And I can see why! It's about a group of women who are deemed "disobedient" from the male-dominated government and are sent to a distant prison planet called "Bitch Planet" to be "straightened out." There they have to do what t...
Bitch Planet is a graphic novel set in a seemingly near future in which the Patriarchy has taken over the world overtly rather than behind the scenes. Leaders are addressed as "Father" and non-compliant women are shipped off-world to a prison planet. DeConnick plays with the various tropes of "women...
"In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the Earth. Mother Earth, we used to say, before we understood. Space is the mother who receives us, you see? Earth is the father. And your father has cast you out. For your trespasses, your gluttony, your pride, your weakness, and your wickedness are su...
Created with a retro 70s feel Bitch Planet has never felt more topical than now.

Every panel calls attention to the misogyny inherent in our culture. ...

The art and the characters are great, but I couldn't quite get into the story. I wasn't in the mood for detailed views of a fictional version of patriarchy. Idk.
I don't even know where to start with this review. I'd been aware of Bitch Planet for some time, and it totally seemed like my jam from what I heard, but I just didn't get around to reading it. And then I did. Holy shit. GO READ BITCH PLANET NOW Embracing the outrageousness of 70's exploitation...
Are you too fat, too thin, too loud, too shy, too religious, too secular, too prudish, too sexual, too queer, too black, too brown, too whatever-it-is-they'll-judge-you-for-today? This comic has it all, substance, style, characters, messages worth taking home to the parents. I loved every bit of ...
