| Abstract |
|
Alison Bechdel’s Fun Home, published in 2006, has received an outstanding amount of critical acclaim in several countries. Interestingly, Bechdel’s earlier work, her comic strip Dykes to Watch Out For, has received far less critical attention to date. Dykes to Watch Out For is a single-page feminist comic strip that was syndicated in gay/lesbian periodicals between 1983 and 2008. The present chapter aims to offer a number of paths on which further investigations in aspects of seriality and serial recognition, with a special focus on the expression of social criticism, could be pursued.
