So You Want To Be A Goth? was made in 3 days. It’s a 16-page zine-style, hand-printed and bound comic made for debut at Toronto Comic Arts Festival 2026.

There’s really not much else to say of it. It does what it says on the package, essentially.

The comic functions as a tongue-in-cheek guide with legitimate interest in giving sound advice to people just entering the goth scene, or subculture, in general, after online discovery of it. Inspired by a conversation about the death of subculture, or the zombie-crawl-style survival of it, with a friend in crust punk, Annie kicked this out at lightning speed for fun.

And it turned into her most popular comic.

As goofy and silly and lame and entirely imperfect as it is, it has struck up many a good conversation.

It’s currently available as a zine and can be picked up from Lucky’s Comics in Vancouver, BC, or it can be grabbed from Annie at a festival.
