Elizabeth Beier is a woman which understands your lez life. She is not simply lived it by herself, she is attracted it out as well. For the past couple of years she actually is spent numerous evenings at the notorious ingesting spot, The Lex. She’s written straight down almost every encounter we’ve had there, perfectly. From the one which moved much too much for the downright depressing, this lady cartoons not just feel near residence but very they much summarize everything The Lex has actually stood for over these past few decades. She will be exhibiting her comic strips at Mission Comics in-may, however in the meanwhile, we questioned this lady somewhat about the woman project and where you can learn more.



Q. What made you want to put pencil to report the Lex cartoons?




A.

The need to wow females, obviously. Well, severely — we began attracting females at the Lexington Club in an effort to present me, such that ended up being a lot more initial than providing them a drink or eagerly singing along to your jukebox’s Pat Benatar. I started accumulating the illustrations and considering it much more as a “project” whenever I heard the bar was closing.



Q. What happen some of a greatest recollections from Lex?






A.

On Halloween of 2014 I held courtroom inside my preferred area from the club and drew attractive people in costume outfit, which in turn ordered me personally products. A cute woman (or perhaps — individual who isn’t a cis guy) handed me a card having said that “you will be screwing amazing. Hold that shit up” and walked away. We went into the woman once more on my method to catch the BART and practiced the basic hug since my personal Major separation that thought fun and gorgeous. Very — which was good night.

Q. exactly what are you seeing originating from various other designers in regards to the place?

Mission Comics, an excellent company about a block far from where Lex is (even though the club is shut at that time, sniff.) We’ll provide and study from my brand-new Lexington Club relevant guide that’ll include comics, paintings, and maybe some writing. I’ll bring initial art to sell as well, therefore will some other regional performers TBD. People should go when they missing the Lexington Club and would like to see their own staff, if they enjoy indie comics, or if perhaps they simply dig queer neighborhood activities. Androgynously beautiful, witty, innovative women that have anything for artsy singles may encouraged to go to.
