SuperQueeros! for September 11th, 2013

Since DC is all villain-y this month, I took the opportunity to look around and found a 'queero in Terry Moore's Rachel Rising! Plus, Bloodstone finally gets the spotlight again in Avengers Arena and we may get some progress on his storyline in this week's... SuperQueeros: all that's lesbian, gay, bisexual, transexual, transgender, and queer in comics today!

Rachel Rising #19

Rachel is locked in battle with Lilith over her hometown of Manson, but luckily she's got her Aunt Johnny and johnny's gf Carol to back her up. With a some 'queero's in reserve, what could go wrong?

SuperQueeros! for June 12th, 2013

When it rains, it pours. And to get me through all the rain here in ATL, 'queero comics are pouring out this week! SuperQueeros: all that's lesbian, gay, bisexual, transexual, transgendered, and queer in comics today!

EDIT: Supurbia 8 came out this week too!!!

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Season 9: Freefall #22

Buffy, Willow, and Xander are reunited and off on an adventure! The only problem is that one of them is a traitor, and the little adventure they're undertaking is mostly just a distraction so that the baddies can do some deviousness! That is, unless that sentient red balloon is hella powerful...

Demon Knights #21

Vandal and Etrigan with the Holy Grail?! That can't be good! What will vampire Ystin have to say about that, I wonder...

Wolverine and the X-Men #31

The lil' Hellfire babies have started their own academy for kidnapped X-men! Luckily they made primo hiring choices and Mystique is leading the staff! (She is sure wearing a lot of hats these days!)

Astonishing X-Men #63

The Saga of Bobby's Exes continues (including Mystique! She has more books this week than Wolvie...) as we count down to Evil Iceman!

Batgirl #21

Alysia Yeoh wasn't in the last issue, but the cray-mazing Puppeteer was, and her psychotic murder spree continues this week!

A Distant Soil #40

Liana has lost control of her abilities and is poised to cause Phoenix-level destruction! Can she rein in her psychic destruction?

Artifacts #28

A lot of the characters in this book are super Catholic... hopefully they still have room for Finch in the narrative!

SuperQueeros! for April 10th, 2013

With Hippolyta coming back from the dead in the Marvel U and fighting the undead in the DCnU, Tia rescuing Batu from certain death in the Supurbia-U, and the Gordian knot that is #nowthatchersdead in the Twitter-U, this week is a life-or-death week for powerful women! And that means that it's a great week for... SuperQueeros: all that's lesbian, gay, bisexual, transexual, transgendered, and queer in comics today!!

Supurbia #6

Woohoo, Gio gets a storyline! The dashing Nightwing-with-good-hair is investigating an illegal weapons deal without his Batman-esque boy toy and the fallout is going to have ramifications for the whole 'hood! What with Zari thinking Gio is the cat's pajamas (or at least really good at pajama parties), will a bazooka bust gone bad force her to resort to using her evil magic powerstone (courtesy of Hector Hunt) to save Agent Twilight? And will Agent T dig up something incriminating about The Superhero & Weapons Expo? Or is Alexis actually going to acquire HuntTech, and is her doing so part of some sort of convoluted trap????

Fearless Defenders #3

Hippolyta (Daughter of Ares, not the mother of a butt-kicking clay princess) joins the cast! Hippolyta is so strongly Wonder Woman's mother in my mind that it's odd to me that she is some sort of maiden superhero in the Marvel U. Ditto with the actual Greek stories, too. Every time I see her in an alternate universe I think, "When does she have time for all this queen-ing? Diana must be taking up so much of her time at that age!" Anyway, the awesome Misty Knight-and-Valkyrie recap pages continue in this issue, so this book is perfect even before page one!

Kevin Keller #8

Kevin Keller has his own love triangle now! This is kind of one of the coolest things to ever happen in comics, you guys. #IMO #DanParentIsASuperQueero

X-treme X-men #13

Final Issue!!!!!!!!!! This has been my favorite X-book for the past year-ish ("Wolver-queers before Weddings", as they say!), so it's hard to see it go so soon... The best I can hope for is that Howlett survives and Dazzler remains totes bad-as. But in terms of what is actually happening this issue: 

Kid!Nightcrawler makes "the ultimate sacrifice", which I assume means he kills the anti-Celestial with his Spidey lunch box. Either way, I'm still P.O.'d about Howlett's loss... On the LGBT-upside, though, it looks like it's up to Karma and Northstar to save the day! Go remaining 'queeros!

Demon Knights #19

The Demon Knights take on the vampire army invading Themescyria! (It's like totes Hippolyta week, eh?)

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Season 9: Freefall #20

Xander tumbles into a possible solution to save the fading Dawn!
