This book demonstrates that since the 1970s, British feminist cartoons and comics have played an important part in the Women's Movement in Britain. This aspect of feminist history in Britain has not previously been documented. A key component of this has been humour.
It also interrogates what the implications have been for the development of feminist cartoons and for the popularisation of feminism in Britain. The book questions why and how British feminists have used humour in comics form to present serious political messages. The work responds to recent North American feminist comics scholarship that concentrates on North American autobiographical comics of trauma by women.
This book highlights the relevance of humour and provides a comparative British perspective.The time frame is 1970 to 2019, chosen as representative of a significant historical period for the
