The Found Family

In three vibrant, heartfelt new graphic novels ranging from witty autobiography to ensemble comedy to indie rock band tour diary comics, Julia Wertz (Impossible People), Leslie Stein (Brooklyn’s Last Secret), and Archie Bongiovanni (Mimosa) explore the many definitions of chosen family, how those families put us to the test, and how we in turn test their limits. Moderated by New Yorker Cartoonist Hilary Fitzgerald Campbell (Murder Book)
