''Tits & Clits Comix'' was an all-female underground comics anthology put together by Joyce Farmer and Lyn Chevely, published from 1972 to 1987. In addition to Farmer and Chevely, contributors to ''Tits & Clits'' included Roberta Gregory, Lee Marrs, and Trina Robbins. Along with such titles as ''It Aint Me Babe'' and ''Wimmen's Comix'', ''Tits & Clits'' was part of a movement by female cartoonists to counter the male-dominated, often blatantly misogynistic, works of the underground.〔Sabin, Roger (1996). "Going underground". ''Comics, Comix & Graphic Novels: A History Of Comic Art''. London, United Kingdom: Phaidon Press. pp. 92; 94–95; 103–107; 110; 111; 116; 119; 124–126; 128. ISBN 0-7148-3008-9.〕 With the conviction that sex was political, the series was created with the focus of sexuality from a female perspective. == Publication history == Seeing what they perceived as the inherent sexism of the mostly male-underground comix scene, as well as the phoniness of mainstream pornographic magazines like ''Playboy'' and ''Penthouse'',〔Gallagher, Paul. ("Such Small Increments: Joyce Farmer's ''Special Exits'' a Moving and Unique Graphic Novel on Old Age and Death," ) ''Huffington Post'' (December 17, 2010).〕 Farmer and Chevely published ''Tits & Clits'' (under the publisher name Nanny Goat Productions) as a sex-positive feminist comic. (In addition to ''Tits & Clits'', the duo also produced a one-shot comic about reproductive rights, ''Abortion Eve'', in 1973.) Condemned by many feminists (even other cartoonists), as well as the expected antagonism from male underground cartoonists,〔 ''Tits & Clits'' also suffered from a 1973 pornography investigation by the Orange County, California, district attorney's office.〔Vankin, Deborah. ("R. Crumb: Joyce Farmer’s ''Special Exits'' on par with ''Maus''," ) "Hero Complex," ''Los Angeles Times'' (Nov. 28, 2010).〕 Nevertheless, Farmer and Chevely published three issues of ''Tits & Clits'' on their own from 1972–1977 (often in print runs of 10,000–20,000).〔(''Tits & Clits'' ), ComicBookDB.com. Accessed Sept. 15, 2011.〕 The title was exclusively written and drawn by Farmer and Chevely for the first two issues, and was opened up to other contributors starting with issue #3. San Francisco underground publisher Last Gasp picked the title up for its final four issues, which were published intermittently between 1977 and 1987. The final issue, #7, was published seven years after issue #6, and featured work by a number of younger cartoonists, part of a new generation of female alternative cartoonists. (It also featured a story by Dennis Worden, the only male cartoonist to contribute to ''Tits & Clits''.) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tits & Clits Comix」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
