EBB AND FLOW: A Mama Pants Comic by Tyler Cohen

This excerpt from Ebb & Flow is part of a longer contemplation on bodies at the beginning arc of physical and social transition. As always, I have no answers, only observations and feelings. Read the full story in Primahood: Magenta, available now from StackedDeckPress.com.
“Mama Pants juxtaposes comics about frequently hilarious, often terrifying, always glorious experience of raising a girl in America with beautifully surreal artwork which explores the Id of parenting itself. Wild and messy, truthfully funny and casually radical, this is an amazing, vibrant, important book.” ~ Michelle Tea, author of Black Wave
