Twelve women. Twelve eras. One shared thread.

If you’ve ever wondered what daily life looked like for women throughout history — not queens or rebels, but everyday women making sense of their world — Woman in Time is for you.

A weekly historical comic that explores the daily life, the small, curious moments that history books tend to skip: how bread was made, how time was kept, what it meant to menstruate, speak, love, clean, or create across millennia.

With a witty pencil and a historian’s heart, this comic draws the past, bringing those invisible stories into the light, rethreading herstory from the fragments.

If you are curious about the quiet revolutions in kitchens, fields, shops, and courtyards — and if you want to help bring those invisible stories into the light, join the time-travelling sisterhood, one woman, one week at a time.

Everything’s free for now—but come June (shhh), the time machine powers up. Weekly comic episodes will always be free, but if you want the backstage gossip, sketchy secrets, nerdy footnotes and a front-row seat to the making of Woman in Time, you’ll need to subscribe and go paid for the full ride.
