This has nothing to do with the comic, as I don't have a ton to say about the comic. The comic is good, you should be reading it, especially if you liked Hellions. But there's a data page in this issue that talks about the history of the birth control pill. (Something this series, and its predecessor, does is tie the plot to historical instances, usually through a left-leaning lens. Which is totally cool with me. Thumbs up.) This page somewhat implies that the modern day birth control pill is free of the hormonal side effects that plagued the early trials of the drug. This isn't true. As someone who knows at least, like, three women, it's apparent that birth control pills still majorly fuck with the hormones of women. Not that I'm anti-birth control. Of course not. I just feel like a lot of young women start taking birth control without knowing its full effects, and that this issue, in a small way, perpetuates the common narrative that the birth control pill is entirely risk-free. That's just me being annoying though, this issue is really good. This is a good series. more
