Film Screening: No Straight Lines with Producer Justin Hall

The film, No Straight Lines: The Rise of Queer Comics, chronicles the journeys of five scrappy queer artists from the margins of the underground comics scene to mainstream acceptance. Join us for the film screening with producer, artist, scholar, and professor, Justin Hall.

The road for queer comics from the margins of the underground comics scene to mainstream acceptance was fraught with challenges. No Straight Lines chronicles the journeys of five scrappy LGBTQ artists — Alison Bechdel, Howard Cruse, Mary Wings, Rupert Kinnard, and Jennifer Camper — from their early DIY work to the international stage, and offers a fascinating window into everything from the AIDS crisis to the search for love and a good haircut.

This event is hosted by Wright State University's VMC, the Division of Inclusive Excellence, and the LGBTQA+ Center.
