Some comics make you laugh, some make you think – and then there are the comics that do both while quietly changing the world. Sophie Labelle’s work belongs to that last category. Her series doesn’t just entertain; it speaks. It shares stories that are honest, vulnerable, and deeply human, especially for trans and queer readers who rarely see their experiences reflected so clearly.
Today, we’re sharing some of Sophie’s newest strips – so scroll down and see just how much power, humor and truth a comic can hold.

I'm going to get flamed for this, but so be it. Beware of potential political exploitation: no one can say for sure whether Margaret Ann Bulkley became James Barry for gender reasons or to be able to fully practice medicine, study it, and become the great surgeon he is. A career that would have been impossible for her as a woman.
There are some people who are so terrified of trans people that they make their entire personality about disputing the fact that trans people even exist, even with the American Psychological Association's statement that it is NOT a mental illness and the testimony and research of the President of the International Genetics Federation telling us that this is not a diseased state. I could name a few people from our own BP community, but you already know who you are and you definitely feel better than the rest of us "uneducated lost souls." Sometimes I feel sorry for people like this, but the great majority of the time I wish they would just go away with their anger and their hatred and their fear.
I just read that last statement was retracted by the police and on 17th November 2025, Ceja Alvarez was indicted by a grand jury for the first-degree m****r of Joss.
I mean it’s true, there’s no way any geriatric person should be running a country!
But other than all of those things, we are definitely not involved in the strikes against Iran.
Made a comment on one of the lower-down posts, which will get hidden, so want to copy it here.. . . . It's not just about legal rights or individual safety. The courage needed to 'out' yourself in front of existing friends, particularly those of us of a slightly older generation, is more than I will ever be able to do.
And cue the transphobes. Thank you for presenting this viewpoint, Hidrėlėy. That is a brave thing to do, even here on Bored Panda, the place that a number of readers claim is "so woke." Read the comments sections and you will see that is not always true.
I see someone's already downvoted you for this. Morons. Yes, many of these cartoons may make some people uncomfortable, but that is the intention, and maybe they might also make some people think a little more carefully about some of the broader issues covered here.
