"TOO TOUGH TO DIE: An Aging Punx Anthology" edited by J.T. Yost & Haleigh Buck
From “tired of being pushed around” to “just plain tired”, the TOO TOUGH TO DIE anthology explores the spectrum of what it means to be an aging punk through personal stories by some of the best cartoonists around.

Yost have tapped preeminent punks including Josh Bayer, Emily Flake, Casanova Frankenstein, Hyena Hell, Janelle Blarg, Gideon Kendall, Carrie McNinch, Brother Malcolm, Liz Prince, Aaron Renier, Ben Snakepit, James Spooner and so many more to provide punk-themed autobiographical comics for your eager consumption.
