About “Origins”

Origins: The Assigned Male Digital Anthology is a 400-page collection of comics by Sophie Labelle, the creator of the queer and trans webcomic Assigned Male. The webcomic began in 2014 when Labelle was a university student. The anthology includes comics from 2014 to 2019, many of which were previously unpublished. It also features posters created between 2014 and 2016. The collection was released after a period of self-doubt following the Great Purge of 2016, when Labelle became self-conscious about some of her earlier work. The anthology includes pieces such as Down With the Cis-Tem, Gender Euphoria, Dear Cis People, and The Assignment.
