With 104 hand-drawn works across eight emotionally charged chapters, this camp-forward visual memoir reclaims pop culture icons as vessels of queer nostalgia, emotional release, and self-authorship. From He-Man’s heroic restraint to Jem’s glittering defiance, each drawing is a ritual—part collage, part confession, part reclamation.

Spanning Masters of the Universe, Voltron, Thundercats, Transformers, Jem, Marvel, Power Rangers, and DC Comics, this artbook transforms childhood ache and thrift-store treasures into a blueprint for emotional sovereignty. It’s not just a collection—it’s a visual archive of longing, clarity, and queer joy.

Created by a Seattle-based memoirist and collage artist, this is Volume One of a two-part emotional architecture—where restraint becomes ritual, and nostalgia becomes narrative.
