TOMBOY, A GRAPHIC MEMOIR
Tomboy is Liz’s first graphic novel; a memoir of her childhood, gender stereotypes, and how those things affected her. Told through a witty first person narrative, this story uses heartbreak and humor to discuss how we learn to define ourselves when we defy convention.

ALONE FOREVER
Liz Prince, author of the world’s cutest relationship comic, Will You Still Love Me If I Wet the Bed?, returns with a new comic about being — gasp! — SINGLE. At last bringing her popular webcomic to printed form, Alone Forever explores the joys of flying solo, free to focus on what really matters: comics, punk rock, and cute boys with beards.
Drawn in Liz Prince’s ultra-charming style, filled with self-deprecation and cats, there’s something for everyone to relate to in this celebration of self-reliance in the age of OkCupid.
It’s the perfect gift for any friend! …If you want that friend to immediately respond, “Wait, what are you saying?!”

WILL YOU STILL LOVE ME IF I WET THE BED
It’s the book that will never die! Liz’s first published comic, winning an Ignatz Award for Outstanding Debut in 2005. What started out as an exercise in keeping a personal comics journal, quickly evolved into Liz Prince’s first solo graphic novel. Described as a mix between Jeffrey Brown and James Kochalka, Liz’s comics are comprised of short vignettes that capture all the cute, gross, and endearing aspects of relationships.

DELAYED REPLAYS
The second comics collection from Ignatz Award winner Liz Prince, further explores how one incredibly self-centered twenty-something finds contentment in her everyday life. From the amusing to the banal, Liz’s comics are slice-of-life at its best, or if not best, at least most relatable. These strips could easily find their home in many alternative weekly papers, but Liz was too lazy to post them anywhere but her livejournal.
