In 1972, ten women cartoonists got together in San Francisco to rectify the situation and produce the first and longest-lasting all-woman comics anthology, Wimmen's Comix. Within two years the Wimmen's Comix Collective had introduced cartoonists like Roberta Gregory and Melinda Gebbie to the comics-reading public, and would go on to publish some of the most talented women cartoonists in America. Most issues of Wimmen's Comix have been long out of print, so it's about time these pioneering cartoonists' work received their due.

Review:
"This handsome collection is well worth the investment on its own merits, as well as a critical entry in the comics medium's emergence as a space for disenfranchised voices - a transformation which continues to this day." --Broken Frontier

"These volumes invite the casual browser as well as the aficionado to marvel at the talented spirit and energy of an earlier moment in the history of Wimmen as well as comix." --World Literature Today

"Fantagraphics have been doing great work over the past five years collecting and republishing historical queer comics, recently releasing The Complete Wimmen s Comix and the invaluable collection No Straight Lines. --Panels
