This volume of Teen Titans has always teased its issues with the idea that the team is about to break-up. At this point, I highly doubt the will, but...

Detective Comics #940
...the Teen Titans may have to break-up if Red Robin dies in Detective Comics! Tim has targeted all the Colony drones at himself and, unless Batwoman can convince her father to disarm them, it's curtains for everyone's favorite boy genius!

SuperQueeros! for April 1st, 2015

It's the final chapter of a lot of DC titles as we near Convergence. Will your favorite 'queeros survive? The first step will be to get through this month! SuperQueeros: All that's lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender in comics today!

Batwoman Annual #40
Kate gets one more issue before she rides off into the sunset, and it's an annual! See how the creative team bids adieu to one of the most revolutionary queer characters of the millennium.

Batman Eternal #52
Meanwhile, Kate's ex Maggie bows out too. That's right, it's the final issue of Batman Eternal!

Earth 2 World's End #26 (and Convergence #0)
Is Green Lantern dead?! It looks like Allan opens the issue by getting creamed by Darkseid and then performing the ultimate Lunar Dance to resurrect all the other Earth 2 heroes. But is this truly the end of the only gay Green Lantern? And, as this series closes out, does he have a role in the upcoming Convergence event?

Teen Titans Annual #1

SuperQueeros! for March 25th, 2015


For everyone who was wondering, I did some Gotham Academy research and I have a handle on the #queerness of its cast. Plus, I go a little crazy with the 21st century's first rhetorical device, the #hashtag. #SuperQueeros: all that's lesbian, gay, bisexual, transexual, transgender, and queer in comics today!

Earth 2 World's End #25
Green Lantern takes his last shot at saving Earth 2. Can Alan and the Kryptonians emerge victorious? #UseThePowerOfLove

Wolverines #12
Fantomelle's mission comes to an end. Meanwhile, Fang and Lady Deathstrike make their alliances known in Sharp and Ogun's battle for control of their shared body! #FantomelleRules #NewArmForDaken2015

Amazing X-Men #18
Now that The Living Monolith is also The Unstoppable Juggernaut, it's time for the team-up 50 years in the making: Colussus and Cain Marko! (At least, that's what the solicits seem to be implying. Also, did you see how Cain Marko punched Colussus in the same issue that Crossbones breaks his hand on Colossus' jaw? So Cain must have some sort of residual strength, right?) #MoreNorthstarPlease

Uncanny X-Men #32
This title is about to go through a metamorphosis as Cyc sends all the students to the Jean Grey school and teams up with his brother, Mutant Two-Face, to be criminals on the run. So one last chance to see Morph before he fades into the background? #ScottSummersIsAD!ck

Morning Glories #44
How will this season's intricate plans unfold this week? Hopefully we'll get some more Guillaume and Tower Ball! #BasketballShorts

Wicked + Divine #9
Bring on the god-maker! Ananke drops by. #NoBig

Gotham Academy #6
So I think the 'queero in this comic is maybe Maps? She definitely hasn't picked a sexuality as a first year, so it's hard to say, but she's awesome and she took her cute roommate to the school dance so.... Oh, and Olive fights Batman for guardianship of Killer Croc. #AverageDay

SuperQueeros! for February 25th, 2015


There are quite a few new arrivals this week! With spring around the corner it's time for some All-New, All-Different... SuperQueeros: all that's lesbian, gay, bisexual, transexual, transgender, and queer in comics today!

Amazing X-Men #17
Cain Marko is back and he's P.O.'d at the X-men! This time it's because... they killed his brother? I can only imagine he's mad that they did it before he could. Anyway, think he'll be the one to gain Cyttorak's power?

Wolverines #8
SO, Mystique is in charge, Lady Deathstrike figured out that Shogun's second personality is that of her dead beau, X-23 is playing lil' sis to one-armed Daken, and the last page of the last issue was the biggest ever reveal in all of OTP history! Anyway, this issue their plane gets attacked and all plans are put on hold.

Earth 2: World's End #21
Huntress and her grandpa, Batman, go to talk to Green arrow. Meanwhile, the unfridging of Green Arrow's boyfriend Sam was just un-undone when Alan absorbed his fiancé into himself so that he could become the Earth-2 version of the White Lantern and destroy Apokolips. Woo hoo?

Gotham Academy #5
A little late to the game, but the Valentine's spirit has entered the academy and there will be smooches!

Orphan Black #1
In case you don't have access to the show - or you want to see some of the secrets of the OB universe in a more chronological order - Orphan Black is now being adapted into comic book form!

Chew #46
Everything is new! Partner, job, story... everything!

Wicked + Divine #8
The 11th god has arrived, so it's time to party! (When isn't it time to party?)

It's ghost hunting time!

Earth 2 World's End #17
Earth 2 is possessed by the spirit of Apokolips!

Wolverines #4
Fantomelle continues to chagne the game!

SuperQueeros! for December 3rd, 2014

Another DC-domination week, and the relaunch of a fan-favorite title! SuperQueeros: all that's lesbian, gay, bisexual, transexual, transgender, and queer in comics today!


Secret Six #1
The lead story this week is that Gail Simone is finally giving us the DCnU's version of her fan favorite team! Of course, the only familiar faces are Catman and Black Alice, but can Vandal Savage be that far behind? And will she get back her Knockout? And, in the meantime, what superqueero will Simone be bringing to the table to tide us over?

Chew #45
Is Colby going to fry up his old partner, cybernetic super fowl Poyo?

Earth 2 #29/Earth 2: World's End #9
The fight gets taken to Apokolips in World's End, while Babs and Dick's son gets ferried out of Chicago in the regular issue.

Gotham Academy #3
So what IS detention like in Gotham?

Archie #662
Kevin's on the cover, so I'm assuming he's inside too!

SuperQueeros! for October 1st, 2014

We've got a more eclectic mix of media this week, from classic comics at your LCS to some less IRL comics. All of them, though, bring the superqueeroics! SuperQueeros: all that's lesbian, gay, bisexual, transexual, transgender, and queer in comics today!

Rat Queens #8
The solicit says that, if you can't beat the Old God's occultists, join them, then shiv them in the back with a rusty blade! #RatQueensStyle Sounds like things are getting interesting in for Betty and the Queens!

Burn the Orphanage: Reign of Terror #5
The second miniseries of Burn the Orphanage is finishing up this week, so if you're in the mood read about Bear, a gay bear with the literal heart of a bear, beat the snot out of MannCorp, why not pick up this issue, the prior four in this series, and the three issue series that started his story!

X-Men #20
Psylocke and the X-Men take on the Genespliced, a troupe of alien hybrids!

Morning Glories #41
I've gotten behind on my Morning Glories, so all I can say is what the solicits say: "Nowhere else to go." Gulp.

Thor #1
It's the debut of the new Thor, as penciled by Russell Dauterman!

Plus! Maybe you remember Terry Blas's Briar Hollow webcomic? Well issue #6 is starting, and it's starting out sexy! Plus, if you pop over to Northwest Press, you can order a copy of Dash #1, a queer noir that came out this month!

And in the queer adjacent category we have Gotham Academy #1 and Wonder Woman #34!
