The 3:00 Book

By May 16, 2016

Beth Heinly, The 3:00 Book, everyone dies

What Others Are Reading...

A six-panel black and white comic titled 3:00 at the top, meaning, three o’clock, or the”school’s out/let’s play” part of the afternoon, shows a Black woman and a white woman in conversation about bicycling deaths in Philadelphia and as an afterthought gun violence deaths in Philadelphia.

The 3:00 Book
A six-panel, black-and-white comic shows a Black woman in a dark poncho and a white woman in a jacket and Phillies baseball hat on a city street, walking and talking about the afterlife and their beliefs.

The 3:00 Book
1 panel comic from the series "The 3:00 Book," in which the main recurring character (a female-bodied person with their hair typically tied up in a pony tail or a bun), who looks extremely tired, but is beaming with joy, is squatted down and hunched over, holding their phone between their knees, and taking a picture of their two cats, who have their tongues extended and wrapped together in a kiss.

The 3:00 Book
3 panel comic from the series "The 3:00 Book," in which two people walk side by side down the street in summer clothes looking at their phones and discussing what they're seeing; which is news about the latest school shooting. The person on the right, "annoying girl," is ranting about how to solve the issue- while the other person remarks that it's a symptom of cultural collapse.
