As the relentless day-in, day-out of work piles up, music and roommates and social plans begin to seem less and less important as Bobbie struggles to make rent and have any time to be creative. The only thing she has time for outside her job is her dog . . . and her dog is going to do everything he can to keep it that way.

Reviews
"Nicole Goux is a startlingly talented illustrator. With a focus on femininity and women-centric stories, Goux is a talented world-builder with a distinct style." -- Women Write about Comics
"F*ck Off Squad is a beautifully observed character piece that balances an appealingly in-yer-face attitude with genuine moments of true pathos. Goux's pages are constantly structured to exploit the unique properties of the form to further narrative themes and to immerse the readership in the characters' experiences." -- Broken Frontier
