"This collection investigates the political, social, cultural, and sexual ideologies that emerge from his seminal work, Lost Girls, and demonstrates how these ideologies relate to Moore's larger body of work. Each essay attends to the form and content of Moore's comics under the rubric of his pervasive metaphor of the 'politics of sexuality/the sexing of politics.'"--Provided by publisher.
