You can tell everything that Hazel feels for Mari through Hazel’s facial expressions. Taking Franklin’s script, St-Onge and colorist Joy San provide the compassionate spark for these characters. St-Onge’s art perfectly captures the uncertain thrill of first love as well as the pain that years apart and even the tears that years together can bring. Tee Franklin’s story about Hazel and Mari, two young girls who fall in love only to be forced apart for decades before getting their “happily ever after,” is a wonderfully complex and heartfelt story that is more ambitious than what Franklin and St-Onge can ultimately put on the pages of this comic.įranklin and St-Onge simply infuse every page with love, whether it’s their love for this story or the characters’ love for one another. It’s an LGBT love story that straddles a line of being a comic about the issues and being a comic about romance (but why can’t it be both?). It’s a love story about two women who grow up to realize that their love is natural and beautiful. It’s a love story of two women who have to spend a large portion of their lives hiding their confusing-to-them loving relationship. There’s a lot to unpack in Tee Franklin and Jenn St-Onge’s Bingo Love.
