Rigsby WI

Rigsby WI is a free, long-form webcomic chronicling the lives of a group of pretty average teenagers in a small city in Northern Wisconsin. It explores ideas about growing up and the things that shape us, including relationships, poverty, race, and sexuality, and how we choose to present ourselves to our friends, family, and the rest of the world. It also covers topics like, “is Phish a good band?”, “is the neck the dong of the torso?”, and “Ernest Hemmingway: Was he a piece of shit?”

Rigsby WI was nominated for Outstanding Online Comic at the 2024 Ignatz Awards and Best Webcomic at the 2025 Eisner Awards. A print edition of the first chapter was published by Iron Circus in 2025 and can be purchased here.

Rigsby WI is written and illustrated by SE Case, an illustrator and graphic designer who lives in Minnesota with her partner, daughter and dog. Rigsby WI is inspired in part by the people she has met and places she has lived in the upper midwest, including the Wisconsin Northwoods and Driftless areas.
