Fungirl
You definitely don't want to have this Fungirl for a girlfriend! She brings a homeless guy from the park to a candlelight dinner with another couple to ruin the evening. And when her roommate is having sex, she bursts in and comments on their preferences. Elizabeth Pich draws her striking, short strips about a young woman in a shared flat with a sense of humor that makes you feel uncomfortable and laugh out loud at the same time. What makes it special: Elizabeth Pich quotes comic history (and art history) - for example, American Sunday newspaper strips with their wit and bright colors, or the "Peanuts". At the same time, "Fungirl" is drawn in the very contemporary style of the young comic avant-garde. The themes are also contemporary: Fungirl and her friend’s despair that they are not performing well enough in their job, or that their male colleague is promoted again after all. Fungirl is strong because she is completely herself, has a lot of fun and couldn't care less about what others think of her - simply a terrible, great woman.
