Mina: an overachieving executive in her 50s is crushing meetings and multitasking like a pro — yet she’s constantly undermined and ignored. That is, until one day having transformed into the super-heroine she always was, by a manicurist who invokes Golda Meir and other superheroes across the ages, she goes on a rescue of kidnapped children. With nothing but a Tide Pod, a thong, and a hefty dose of hot flashes, Mina, the super-heroine, goes on a mission to save kids forced to do dangerous labor, vanquish the mastermind seeking world domination, and reclaim the power she deserves. This graphic novel is equal parts irreverent and empowering. A vibrant art piece, Holy Menopause flips the script on aging, celebrating women in the great tradition of Jewish super-heroines.
