Ladydrawers
“Growing Season,” The Ladydrawers‘ comics exploration of the links between public health, race and food policy continues with “The Sixth Mass Extinction,” in which we meet Claire Pentecost, an artist who works with food and soil and has watched as the drive to wipe out bacteria has taken a toll on public health. It’s our first strip with Canada-based comics creator and journalist Laura Ķeniņš.
