The Amazing Camel Toe
Constance, a modern, young illustrator, takes revenge for the thousands of attacks suffered daily by women with a comic of her own, titled The Amazing Camel Toe, celebrating the adventures of an anti-macho vigilante in tight, panther leggings: A hero who battles against sexism, harassment, slut-shaming, and unrealistic standards of beauty. A form of release that could materialize in a publishing deal for Constance… But in order for that to happen, the author, often full of doubt, must dare to assert herself more. Luckily, she’s supported by her gang of girlfriends, her boyfriend, her favorite band, and not to mention Camel Toe herself: who says this comic-book bombshell can’t exist in real life?
Gently provocative, cheerfully fierce, and borderline punk, Claire Duplan has a style and a tone all her own, overflowing with humor and energy.

The Amazing Camel Toe
–OR GET IT AT ONE OF OUR RETAILERS–
Kyle Taborski –
With a title like “The Amazing Camel Toe” I knew I was in for an adventure. The book’s art style leans toward messy, but it complements the stylistic messiness of both the protagonist and the story itself. This feels like autobiographical fiction, the protagonist is an artist living her life and feeling all the feels of patriarchy, friendship, partnership, and society. She does all this while also writing the superhero comic, Camel Toe, a feminist avenger who fearlessly lives her truth and rights the wrongs of patriarchy. The protagonist also uses her character to inspire herself in her own life. Overall, it felt like this story was an exploration of how to exist and be true to yourself as a women in a patriarchy. I enjoyed it, it was fun.I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
