Liz created a series of an ongoing tales rendered through beautiful artwork with strong characters, while clearly demonstrating her storytelling ability.

In comic form, two queer punk kids, Kate and her new girlfriend, plaster their high school's halls with a flier campaign to allow same-sex couples at prom. Joey, stuck in the hospital bed after a skinhead beating, is unconscious. Joey's father is interrogated because of the signs of history of apparent history of abuse they found in Joey's x-rays. Kate calls a faculty member a “sub-human asshole” to his face and storms off campus.

Her characters are easy to identify with, regardless of your gender or sexual preference. (Alan Lastufka)
