From the punk rock art style to the heartwarming queer characters, this coming of age story has a bit of everything. Ariel Grace Jones and her band are determined to break into the Southside of Chicago's music industry while also struggling to stay authentic to themselves as their talent gets them noticed by a local punk icon. At the center of it, this is a story of best friends and all the love and frustrations of being in community together. An aspect I loved was how this comic dealt with music on and off the panel. The pages where a band was rocking out on stage felt vivid and the music leapt off the page in Xunise's colorful art style. I would definitely recommend this for folks that love punk music, and even for fans of the show, We Are Lady Parts.
