I Can't Stop Thinking About Horses and Sex

Unmistakably Hanawalt, the Tuca & Bertie and Bojack Horseman visionary has returned to her comics roots

From the creative mind behind some of the most inventive and genre-expanding animated shows on TV comes a long-awaited collection of honest, silly, horny, and vulnerable comics. Intimate and emotionally layered, I Can’t Stop Thinking About Horses and Sex is a collage-like collection of comic strips and artwork that blurs genre lines. This is a fragmented memoir of a horse girl, now in her forties and reflecting back on a lifetime of obsessions.

Whether Lisa Hanawalt is confronting large life issues like whether or not to have children, being an anxious lil freak, caring for a sick horse, or dealing with a major breakup and the ensuing lustfulness—she delivers a reading experience that’s relatable and affirming. In lush colors and kinetic lines, she charts the strange terrain of life, one bumpy, dusty horseback ride at a time. 

Like peeking into Hanawalt’s diary—I Can’t Stop Thinking About Horses and Sex is an unbridled exploration of platonic and romantic fixations, traumas, and a send-up to interspecies friendship, told with her trademark candid humor.
