Issue 1
Bite Back is a saddle-stitch experimental zine that examines the use of cannibalism in media to critique feminist themes such as autonomy, sexuality, patriarchal structures, and friendship. The first issue of Bite Back dissects the Paramount series Yellowjackets, a drama set in the 1990s that follows the crash of a plane carrying a girls' high school soccer team. In an effort to survive the harsh winter months, the girls resort to cannibalism.
The zine artistically portrays the deteriorating psyche of the girls through the use of abstract imagery, unconventional infographics, and gritty textures.
