In our recent PRINT Book Club conversation hosted by Debbie Millman and Steven Heller, writer-illustrator Aubrey Hirsch, author of the new graphic novel, Graphic Rage, revealed how she transforms feminist critique into incisive graphic storytelling, blending rigorous research, sharp humor, and deeply personal narrative.
Hirsch discussed everything from the commodification of women’s bodies and the absurdity of shifting beauty standards to ageism, workplace bias, and the cultural policing of women’s humor—using comics not simply as illustration, but as a powerful medium where words, images, and data visualization work in concert to make injustice legible, immediate, and emotionally resonant.
What emerges in Hirsch’s work is both a fierce indictment of the systems that shape women’s lives and a hopeful insistence on visibility, agency, and rage as a creative force—proof that comics can be as politically potent as they are visually compelling.
