Via tolino media Of Sea and Skin - Issue 1

A heartfelt story about friendship, identity and queerness. At the heart of Of Sea & Skin are Jenny and Craig, who find their only real freedom exploring the wild sea. As they grow up together under the weight of small-town expectations, Jenny hides her latex fetish, an intensely personal longing that stirs both profound shame and fascination. Craig, meanwhile, navigates a world that sees him one way, as a boy who should act like one, even as he already understands that he doesn't fit into traditional norms. He's in love with Jenny, though he keeps that hidden too, terrified that saying anything could break the one real connection he has. Things begin to shift when Jenny has to confront not only her fetish, but also her attraction to women. As she begins to face those parts of herself, both she and Craig are pushed into new, uncharted territory. Secrets surface and they must each find the courage to face the truths they've been avoiding, not just about each other, but about themselves. Of Sea & Skin's target audience includes fans of mature slice-of-life, queer-themed, and fetish-positive comics, particularly readers of titles like Sunstone as well as those drawn to coming-of-age narratives that handle sexuality and identity with care and complexity. Issue 1: Jenny and Craig navigate complexities of their lives growing up in rural Scotland, but something in their bond begins to shift. ...
