The Cowboy With the Hoof Print On His Face

The Cowboy With the Hoof Print On His Face, By Judy Moore, is a story of falling for troublesome people (and sometimes being those troublesome people ourselves.) An instruction manual for red flags and how to ignore them. Getting in too deep with the wrong boy and eventually seeing past the early illusions of a poisonous relationship. As much a tale of cutting ties as an investigation into the authors own struggles pre-transition, TCWTHPOHF reflects on Judy Moore’s time trying and ultimately failing to be a boy. Her delicate and precise line work is put in service of poetic storytelling full of subtlety and nuance. The 29 pages long zine is completed by a series of footnotes that add another level of understanding to this astonishing work.

29 pages + 3 pages of notes from the author, Black and White, English.
