Oni Press has announced The Juiciest Tomato of All: Corita Kent, Pop Nun, a graphic memoir from bestselling creator Alison Oliver about the life and times of trailblazing artist Corita Kent. Though not as well-known as her contemporary Andy Warhol, Corita Kent earned international acclaim throughout the 1960s as one of the pop art movement’s leading lights. In the height of her popularity, Kent appeared on the cover of Newsweek, was named one the Los Angeles Times’ Women of the Year, and saw her work exhibited at the Metropolitan Gallery of Art and The Smithsonian. For the first time, The Juiciest Tomato of All: Corita Kent, Pop Nun tells​ the inspirational story of how a nun living in Los Angeles managed to become an unlikely hero of America’s cultural revolution… and left an indelible mark on the art world and the face of Catholic sisterhood through her searingly fearless artwork. 

Through brightly colored silkscreens and pop culture references, Corita Kent told stories that united her two worlds—a spiritual life and one full of art and beauty. The Juiciest Tomato of All depicts the tale of this Iconoclast woman in history who cared deeply about the world she lived in and saw grace and radiance in everything around her.

Alison Oliver’s The Juiciest Tomato of All will be available from Oni Press on May 11, 2027 wherever graphic novels are sold.
