Straight In, is a fresh new, hand drawn, LGBT comic book, set in Toronto and entirely produced in Canada. The storyline revolves around a Straight Girl, recently arrived from the UK, who finds herself settling in to the Big City.

Straight In will touch on important issues both cultural and societal, cleverly woven throughout humorous overtones and delivered alongside cheeky one-liners. Straight In provides the perfect opportunity to reach and connect with an LGBT audience, and their allies.
