Ask Me About Polyamory: The Best of Kimchi Cuddles by Tikva Wolf

January 7, 2026 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

Ask Me About Polyamory: The Best of Kimchi Cuddles by by Tikva Wolf, forward by Sophie Labelle    If one is curious about polyamory but wants something easier than a full on text, then this might be the one you need. You will take away from it what you put into it. My personal take was that some things helped me understand the subject, other things I felt made things even more confusing, sometimes I thought she was preaching to the converted, and some comics […]

The Best of Assigned Male by Sophie Labelle

cbr13bingo Rep (as Stephie is autistic, plus transgender people telling their own stories in a positive light, and not just about their transitioning or having transitioned, are not seen as much. Stephie is a normal kid getting through school, friendships, babysitting, growing up, dating and more.) If you ever find yourself reading anything by Sophie Labelle’s Assigned Male comics know this: the greatest thing and the worst thing about them is the same thing: They are in your face. They make you uncomfortable. They make […]
