Synopsis

In Queen of Cosmos Comix Trilogy, underground cartoonist, fine artist, and muralist Barbara "Willy" Mendes chronicles women creators' psychedelic journey through Biblical tableaux, modern life, and into a fantastical, interstellar future, weaving in her own intimate stories of being an artist, mother, and grandmother, especially in the never-before-published third volume. Inspired by Jewish mysticism, Mendes presents a creation myth shaped by feminine cosmic consciousness, with new, immersive worlds -- and a radical reimagining of this one.

Includes an illuminating and entertaining interview with Mendes, as well as the 3rd never-before-published chapter of the trilogy.
