Poppy Seeds #1
2022. Mixtape Comics (Self-published) Living with auto-immune disease is tough. Your brain is foggy, you're in pain and nauseated... and you sleep all day, so everyone in your life thinks it's a permanent vacation. Rachel Dukes knows from experience that it's not. How do you manage to fit a whole life into six hours of consciousness each day? In Poppy Seeds #1, Dukes asks themself this question. After nearly two years of constant illness, Dukes is ready to get out of bed, find some work-life balance, and get back to the drawing board. But, immunosuppressed and vulnerable during a global pandemic, where does one start? At home. 24 pages of diary comics. One color risograph. Hand assembled in Los Angeles, CA.
