BINKY BROWN MEETS THE HOLY VIRGIN MARY HC
(W/A) Justin Green
A lost classic of underground cartooning, Binky Brown meets the Holy Virgin Mary is Justin Green's autobiographical portrayal of his struggle with religion and his own neuroses. Binky Brown is a young Catholic struggling with all the usual problems of adolescence — puberty, agnosticism, and the fear that the strange ray of energy emanating from his private parts will strike a picture of the Holy Virgin Mary. First published in 1972, this is the controversial masterpiece that invented the autobiographical graphic novel. (C: 0-1-2)
