Spanning national, cultural, and artistic borders, the essays shine a light on the significant contributions of Jewish women to comics. The volume includes major figures such as Miriam Katin, Emil Ferris, Aline Kominsky-Crumb, and Rutu Modan alongside works by artists translated for the first time into English, such as the Georgian Nino Biniashvili and the Haredi artist Batsheva Havlin.
