Bad Boyfriends

Bad Boyfriends is a collection of comics about abusive male partners... Personally, I am not interested in helping men reform or deconstruct themselves. My purpose is to communicate with other women, to help them see the red flags in their own relationships, so they can identify and avoid people who attempt to control or devalue them.
