Boys Weekend by Mattie Lubchansky

From the award-winning cartoonist and editor at The Nib, a hilarious trans-"final girl" horror graphic novel about a bachelor party gone very, very wrong.

Newly-out trans artist’s assistant Sammie is invited to an old friend’s bachelor weekend in El Campo, a hedonistic wonderland of a city floating in the Atlantic Ocean's international waters—think Las Vegas with even fewer rules. Though they have not identified as a man for over a year, Sammie’s college buddies haven't quite gotten the message—as evidenced by their formerly closest friend Adam asking them to be his “best man.”

Arriving at the swanky hotel, Sammie immediately questions their decision to come. Bad enough that they have to suffer through a torrent of passive-aggressive comments from the groom's pals—all met with zero pushback from supposed "nice guy" Adam. But also, they seem to be the only one who's noticed the mysterious cult that's also staying at the hotel, and is ritually dismembering guests and demanding fealty to their bloodthirsty god.

Part satire, part horror, Boys Weekend explores what it’s like to exist as a transfemme person in a man’s world, the difficulty of maintaining friendships through transition, and the more cult-like effects of masculinity, “hustle” culture, and capitalism—all through the vibrant lens of a surreal, scary, and immensely imaginative romp.

If a world doesn’t hold anything for you? You can leave it behind. We can expect better for ourselves.

Mod opinion: I hadn't heard of this book before, but the description sounds so interesting!

I don't think androgyny in general is genuinely valued but can we talk about how "desirable" androgyny is always about neutrality and removing as much as possible (white, super thin, no boobs no bulge no body hair) whereas "ugly" androgyny tends to be fat, hairy, full of gender (visible breasts/bulge), often involves people of color. like whenever we see sci fi Futuristic Androgyny it's always "we've removed all possible characteristics" never "we combined all these characteristics" & me myself? as someone who's androgyny is hairy and genderful and "ugly"? i notice

boys weekend by mattie lubchansky made me surprisingly emotional for a kind of ridiculous horror satire about a pyramid scheme cult
