Diane DiMassa

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Diane DiMassa (born 1959) is an American feminist author and cartoonist.

DiMassa's works include graphic novels and comics featuring the character Hothead Paisan, a self-described "homicidal lesbian terrorist... with scary hair and a fetish for guns, grenades, mallets and sharp objects", initially published by Giant Ass Publishing. The comics have been collected in book form and published by Cleis Press.

Diane DiMassa has contributed to a number of comic anthologies, including Robert Kirby's Strange Looking Exile in the early 1990's. In 2005, she contributed new work to the comic anthology Juicy Mother, which did not feature Hothead.
