| Summary: | Discover the pioneering new comic from transgender cartoonist Erin Nations! Called by critics "funny, sincere, and just generally brilliant," Gumballs is a one-man variety show spanning graphic memoir, observational comedy, razor-sharp character studies, and so much more. <br> <br> Gumballs dispenses an array of bright, candy-colored short comics about Erin's gender transition, anecdotal true tales of growing up as a triplet, and fictional stories of a socially inept lovestruck teenager named Tobias. The wide-ranging series is filled with single-page gag cartoons, visual diaries of everyday life, funny faux personal ads, and real-life horror stories of customers at his day job. Gumballs offers a variety of flavors that will surely delight anyone with a taste for candid self-reflection and observations of humanity.<br> <br> Gumballs tips its hat to the classic alt-comic tradition of Eightball , Optic Nerve , and Box Office Poison , but speaks with a delightfully fresh voice for the modern age.<br> <br> This book collects Gumballs #1-4, plus 32 pages of brand-new content!<br> <br> Winner of the 2018 Dinky Award for Outstanding Work Showcasing Diversity |
