Dykes ToWatch Out For by Alison Bechdel

this brief transit

IT'S A DARK AND STORMY NIGHT.

GINGER? ARE YOU JUST GETTING HOME?

IT TOOK ME THREE HOURS! I SHOULD'VE STAYED AT SCHOOL BUT I WAS AFRAID I MIGHT MISS SOMETHING.

WHAT'RE YOU GUYS DOING OUTSIDE?

AND IF WE'RE ALL OUT HERE, WHO'S WITH SPARROW?

411

MEANWHILE...

I SHOULD'VE DONE THE SELFEXAMS. I SHOULD'VE EATEN MORE GREENS. I SHOULD'VE ONLY USED MY CELL PHONE WITH A HEADSET.

HONEY, DON'T BE RIDICULOUS. CELL PHONES GIVE YOU BRAIN CANCER, NOT BREAST CANCER,

HOW CAN THIS HAPPEN? WHAT IF I DIE BEFORE MY BOOK COMES OUT?

www.DykesToWatchOutFor.com

SHHH.

SKIS?

HUH, EITHER SHE FOUND SOMEONE TO COME OVER, OR WE'RE BEING BURGLED BY A BIATHLETE.

SPARROW?

UUNNH!

STUART? OH, GOOD. WASH YOUR HANDS AND GET IN HERE! NOW!

NOWWW!

YLLOW

A HEAD...AND

A LEG...

I'VE GOT

ΟΗ, SHE'S MAGNIFICENT!

HAVE A NAME?

WELCOME, BABY! DO YOU

I'VE BEEN LOBBYING FOR HANS BLIX, BUT NO ONE ELSE SEEMS TOO KEEN ON IT.

EHH?
