FRESCA ZIZIS
fresca zizis
Last Gasp December 1977
Long before Melinda Gebbie devoted 16 years to illustrating Alan Moore’s controversial and erotic Lost Girls trilogy, she produced Fresca Zizis, a comic so controversial it was banned in Britain and existing copies were ordered to be burned. Fresca Zizis, which means “fresh cocks” in Italian, includes some autobiographical comics that Gebbie states “deal with the cruelty of lovers, the excesses of youth, the states of depression and dreams….a warning and a comfort to those who venture out too deep.”
