The road for queer comics from the Underground Comix scene to mainstream acceptance was fraught with challenges. No Straight Lines traces the stories of five scrappy cartoonists (Alison Bechdel, Jen Camper, Howard Cruse, Rupert Kinnard, and Mary Wings) from their early DIY work to the international stage, and offers a window into the hopes, fears, and fantasies of LGBTQ+ people across the U.S.
