In recent years, transgender and nonbinary comics readers have been fortunate enough to find stories that reflect their own experiences. However, all over the country comics by trans creators are being banned by culturally conservative authorities, and harsh legal measures threaten the rights and well-being of trans and nonbinary Americans themselves. How can comics address transgender history? How can autobio comics reach not just trans readers but sympathetic allies? How can trans and nonbinary creators thrive despite the threats of book banners and hostile culture warriors? Join Prism Comics and moderator Tara Madison Avery (We're Still Here, The Transgender Heroes Coloring Book) and panelists Sonya Saturday (The Greatest Thing You've Ever Seen in Your Life, J.K. Rowling and the Ungrateful Fans), Maddie Jacobus (The Out Side, Bummer Corp), A. C. Esguerra (Eighty Days), Kristen Enos (Berserker, Active Voice), Rebecca Kaplan (The Beat, Prism Comics Board Member), and Gaia WXYZ (We Belong) for a lively discussion of these and other questions.
