Comic about autism: AspiGurl / Lily Spectrum

Post Reply New Topic

Hi everyone

Sorry if this is the wrong place, for me it doesn’t fit into the topical discussions section nor into the media representation section. In this case, maybe the mods can move it.

This weekend I discovered an online comic about autism. Surprisingly there is no mention of it on WP. So basically it’s a classic webcomic describing everyday situations with the viewpoint of an autistic girl. The authors are from the Montréal university in Canada, hence why it’s bilingual when there is text. The comic was called AspiGurl from its inception until this summer when it changed its name to Lily Spectrum due to the name of Asperger being linked to the Nazi.

Here are some links:

I think it’s very funny and relatable. What about you?
