"Katie Lane makes comics that you’ve never seen before. They sidestep expectation, drawing power instead from an intense, somewhat uncomfortable, specificity. In Girls Gone Wild, Lane’s characters’ keen self-awareness and sharp tongues only serve to push them further away from one another. The reader follows in step, drifting from dissociation to disturbing hyper-presence, sharing in their desperate desire for understanding." —Juliette Collet (THE PEACEMONGER, BLAH BLAH BLAH)
Katie Lane is a cartoonist and collage artist. Her work depicts the emotional and material intensities of relationships, and work: navigating the boundaries of language, personal hardship and self criticism. Lane's collage webcomic single camera sitcom ran from 2018-2022, and is being published by comicsblogger. Her recent pen and ink work in the collections sine qua non, perception through a gap, and blue idea orbit sexual experiences and iterations of argumentative moments in romantic partnerships. She is the coeditor of bernadette magazine along with Angela Fanche.

2dcloud
(Bridgeport)
2dcloud is a publisher of comic books, graphic novels and artist books based in Chicago, founded by Maggie Umber and Raighne Hogan in 2007. It is a different kind of label. Its structure is horizontal and peer-oriented. Artist and publisher work together as equals to create books which are extensions of the artist rather than products of commerce. The results are strange, complex, and unprecedentedly beautiful.
