This is an essential history for anyone interested in the story of punk, and for anyone who loves comics or graphic novels!

It also pushes back against the idea that “punk” is centered around a specific period or sound, highlighting crucial artists like Sister Rosetta Tharpe alongside Black women of the original UK punk scene like the fabulous Poly Styrene.
