SuperQueeros: Addendum

Dangit! It looks like Anachronism wasn't into cute mystical punks, but instead likes those mean fish-girls. Which means zero queers in Avengers Arena again...

BUT:
Batman #18
This issue definitely tips the hand of the writers: Harper Rowe is on her way to be
the next (and first no-takesies-backsies, present-day, female) Robin! Which means we get a big dose of her awesome queer brother this issue! You win one, you lose one, I guess.

SuperQueeros! for March 13th, 2013

For perhaps the first time EVER in the history of this column, there are only AMAZING comics this week! No schlock, just seven awesome titles for... SuperQueeros: all that's lesbian, gay, bisexual, transexual, transgendered, and queer in comics today!!
Supurbia #5
Have you read the preview??? Did you see the Easter egg on Zari's shirt?? And I had no idea Tia was such an awesome superhero! Plus Eve gets some storyline! (I feel like she's been relegated to playing an extra to the rest of the team ever since the mini, which I guess is fair turnabout since they were all JLA archetypes to her heroic ingenue for this four issues...) Oh, and Sara and Zari look so awesome in the cold open! I almost want Hector to succeed just to see that Thelma & Louise biz every month!

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Season 9: Freefall #19
Buffy heads back to San Fran, only to find out that a world without magic may soon be a world without anthropomorphized mystical artifacts, specifically Buffy's sister! Will Willow swing in with a solution? Will Billy's research save the day? Or is it curtains for everyone's favorite inter-dimensional Key??? (File that under "Ways Buffy Summers is like Scott Summers") #DawnIsInTrouble #MustBeAWednesday

Demon Knights #18
No Etrigan and Vandal Savage on the tail of the DK for stealing away Jason Blood... With no villains in the fold, how will the Knights fight evil, vampiric fire with evil, demonic fire?

Avengers Arena #6
Woohoo! Anachronism makes the cover! Hopefully that's not the last thing he does on this mortal coil!!!

EDIT: looks like Anachronism is into the ladies, not the dudes. But I did miss that Batman #18, guest starring Cullen Rowe, came out today!

Fearless Defenders #2
Moonstar joins the team! But will it be as an archer or as a Valkyrie???

Ultimate Comics X-Men #24
Fingers crossed that we get some Ultimate Colossus again this issue!

X-treme X-Men #12
So now that Xavier-in-a-bottle is an unholy Nazi sorcerer trinity, what the most kick-as team of X-men going to do to save the universe? (Hint: it plays into X-termination) [Also, point of trivia: this team is one Nocturne away from being perfect.]

SuperQueeros! for March 6th, 2013

First off, a PA: Avengers Arena has British boyfriends! Yup, Anachronism and Bloodstone appear to be dating! Not sure if they're still alive though... Also, Image's Prophet has a genderqueer character in John Ka! Now, back to this week's regularly scheduled, super-sized... SuperQueeros: all that's lesbian, gay, bisexual, transexual, transgendered, and queer in comics today!!


Earth 2 #10
It's the heyday of the genderqueer as Wotan (originally a woman who Anya'd out, becoming a super-awesome magic-user to overcome her oppression by the patriarchy [Note: trigger warning if you look up what that oppression was], Wotan has switched bodies in order to extend zir lifetime and is now in the body of a man) faces off against Dr. Fate! Maybe later Wotan can join these Earth 2 Scoobies like zir Buffy-verse parallel! #fingerscrossed

Fashion Beast #7
Speaking of queering gender and coming out on top, Doll is a star!! Unfortunately, now things are going to start unraveling for this 'Queero!

Mara #3
Super-powered volleyball star Mara is coming out, this time as a metahuman! Now someone just needs to tell her that with great power comes great responsibility, most importantly the responsibility of staying alive once you catch the attention of the wrong people!

Stormwatch #18
Zealot joins Apollo and Midnighter to form the new Stormwatch!!! This book is a fanfic come true!!!!!!

Archie Meets Glee, Part 1
Oh my gosh... I am SO buying this JUST so I can see Kevin meet Kurt (Klaine could mean something VERY different by the time this miniseries ends! Oh, maybe Kevin is the real Eli!), but whoever paralleled Quinn with Betty and Rachel with Veronica CLEARLY only sees the world through hair colors! 

Fairest #13
The last issue for the queer Fable, Rapunzel! (Note that the depiction of Rapunzel's sexuality has not gotten the ravest reviews in the comments.)

True Blood #10
A one-off with Alcide!
