SuperQueeros! for October 21st, 2015

After last week's new Avengers, it seems like the MCU is taking a back seat and letting DC and the other companies carry the queer banner. SuperQueeros: all that's lesbian, gay, bisexual, transexual, transgender, and queer in comics today!

Teen Titans #12

Now that the team knows the truth about Superboy's crime, it's time for them to dramatically walk away, leaving him physically abandoned and emotionally damaged! I think I read a fanfiction about this once...

Lumberjanes #19

April's bid to help the merfolk of the lake is not going as planned!

Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 10 #20

Buffy and Spike have a serial killer to topple, and Giles and Xander have a paranormal ex to investigate. That's right, Anya. Is she really the ghost of the best character ever, or is something more sinister going on?

Secret Six #7

Well Black Alice went and screwed up magic for everybody! But maybe she's also the key to fixing everything... Guest starring all the heavy hitter mages of the DCU!

Invincible #124

In the latest storyline, our hero gets sent back in time to before the series' massacre and he gets a second chance to interact with all those characters who died. Maybe we'll see Will Clockwell!

SuperQueeros! for May 21st, 2014

There are a stack of "jumping on" points this week. Hopefully some of the people jumping onto the new storyline bandwagon will be some of our favorite... SuperQueeros: all that's lesbian, gay, bisexual, transexual, transgender, and queer in comics today!

Batwoman #31

Batwoman's conflict with Wolf Spider comes to a head! But will Kate discover that her newest foe is her oldest GBF?

SuperQueeros! for October 16th, 2013

The end of an era for Batwoman and the beginning of one for Wonder Woman this week in... SuperQueeros: all that's lesbian, gay, bisexual, transexual, transgender, and queer in comics today!

Batwoman #24

It's Kate vs Bruce! The battle we've been waiting for all year has arrived! But will Kate throw her punches? Will bruce understand what's going on? And how will J.H. and crew wrap the story now that they're leaving the book???

Morning Glories #33

With the dramatic reveal of Vanessa's past and future, will we be catching up with any more "dead" characters this is issue? Or just Jun?

Wonder Woman #24

Now that there's a new god of war, how will the DCnU be affected???

Invincible #106

Invincible takes on the Ultra-Daddy!

SuperQueeros! for September 4th, 2013

What with (straight) supervillains taking over the DCnU this month, we have a slim week in 'queero comics. This week it's all Image (and all boys!) for... SuperQueeros: all that's lesbian, gay, bisexual, transexual, transgender, and queer in comics today!

Chew #36

One of the biggest mysteries around precogs is their deaths. If you can see the future coming, why do you follow the path of an untimely demise, seers??? Well, this issue may just be an answer to that question as the recently deceased (As of issue #29) Toni Chu takes front stage from beyond the grave!

Invincible #105

Invincible is starting up again from their new status quo. Much like the reboots of continuity resets, this is a great "jumping on point", which I guess means that there won't be TOO many spoilers if you are making your way through the trades now!

SuperQueeros! for July 17th, 2013

Batwoman!

We've got some great queer comics, plus I've got some queer and queer-adjacent shout-outs! SuperQueeros: all that's lesbian, gay, bisexual, transexual, transgender, and queer in comics today!

Batwoman #22

The D.E.O. are importing villains to take on Batman. What does that mean for Batwoman and Flamebird? Classic villains smack-down!!!

X-Factor

Invincible #104 

Last issue our happy homos Rick Sheridan and William Clockwell showed up for Angstrom Levy's return. Will the last through his vengeful stay this month???

X-Factor #259

THE TRUTH ABOUT LONGSHOT AND SHATTERSTAR?!?!?! FINALLY???? AFTER 20 YEARS????? YEEEEEESSSSSSSS! (Oh, also I guess this means Ric and 'Star are alive!!)

FF #9

FF

Something about the evil FF attacking the whole Marvel U? Tong has zher work cut out for zher! But first... POOL PARTY!!!!

Uncanny X-Force - OTP!!!

Uncanny X-Force #8

Uh-oh, Cluster and Psylocke do not look like they are getting along... how will they be girlfriends now?????

Prophet #28

The solicit says that this issue focuses on the great granddaddy of the Prophets, so there may not be any John Ka in this issue. But they do give a name to that weird face-frame that so many costumes from the '90s had! They call it a "crown shield". I call it "needs more spirit gum".

Wonder Woman #22

Diana has landed on New Genesis! I wonder if New Gods and old demi-gods mix?

Shout-Outs:

Gunnerkrigg Court #4

If you're not reading this webcomic about precocious lesbians online, then pick up the collected versions! The hardcover for the fourth cycle comes out today, so you have no excuses!

Red Sonja #1

While it's unclear if this book has any queers outright, it is written by Gail Simone and has a variant cover from basically all your fav women illustrators. So if no queer characters are introduced, at least you know it will be awesome!

SuperQueeros! for April 24th, 2013

The return of a classic queer comic and the beginning of the next chapter in one of today's hottest queer-inclusive series. Plus, more Young Avengers!! It's a great week to be... SuperQueeros: all that's lesbian, gay, bisexual, transexual, transgendered, and queer in comics today!

A Distant Soil #39

I haven't ever read this series, but, according to it's Wikipedia page, it was one of the first comics to feature queer characters. Also according to Wikipedia, the debut of the series was with WaRP Graphics in 1983, its current run with Image started in 1996, and issue #38 came out in 2007, so it's been a long, sweet ride for this seminal comic. Looks like this is the week to see what the hype is all about!!!

Morning Glories #26

Season 2 starts here! Can Cassie save EVERYBODY?

Young Avengers #4

Hawkeye shows up and Marvel Boy's history gets "shamelessly ret-conned"!! (This series is AWESOME. Did you see that Miss America Chavez has two moms???)

Teen Titans #19

The solicit says that a Titan shows his/her true colors: looks like this terrible Red Robin story is shifting into high gear!

Justice League Dark #19

The Flash helps defend the House of Mystery!

Invincible #102

William probably won't be in this issue, but you never know!

True Blood #12

...and who KNOWS if Lafayette will be in this one!

SuperQueeros! for March 20th, 2013

Are we going to get our first lesbian wedding in comics???? Batwoman is certainly making an effort! And what is going to happen to the Marvel Multiverse when the Astonishing and X-treme X-men get their hands on it? A new New 52???? Find out this week in... SuperQueeros: all that's lesbian, gay, bisexual, transexual, transgendered, and queer in comics today!!

X-termination #1

This comic gets our number one spot this week not because it is a confluence of three of today's most critically acclaimed X-books, but because it is the largest meeting of queer characters since the Young Avengers teamed up with the Runaways! (Ah, the good ol' days...) This issue has Karma, Northstar, Howlett, AND his bf, Herc! I know that we already have Daken (Meh, he's dead NOW. But he'll get better.), but my fingers are crossed that this series dumps my fav queer-verine, Howlett, in the 616.

Batwoman #18
Wonder Woman is heading back to her solo series, but Bette's back in action! Plus, Kate is marrying Maggie?!?!??? A new story starts here, and it looks like Batwoman and Hawkfire are up against classic batvillain Mr. Freeze!

X-Factor #253
The Hell-on-Earth War continues! Now that Tier has offed one of the Hell Lords, will his mom let him loose on the other demons who want his head? Especially since her teammates are pressuring her to do just that?

Artifacts #26
No one's plans are going as they'd hoped! Next time we should have the Darkness rebuild the world around the Angelus having lots of cute girlfriend time!

Chew #32
It looks like Chew is coming out this week, not February 20, as I had previously reported.

Invincible #101
Who survived into "The Aftermath"?

Wonder Woman #18
Ares has plans for Diana!

SuperQueeros! for January 30th, 2013

It's only the last Wednesday of January, and already it's time for the Colt-est cover of 2013!

X-treme X-men #9

Hercules and Howlett kiss-wrastle! Well, maybe not, but the solicit says that the (former?) boyfriends do go "head to head." I'm just using fan-license to decide which "head" they're talking about. ;D Oh, and didn't Dazzler die last issue? Meh, I'm sure she'll recover. She is, just like Howlett, the best at what she does. And what he does is Herc, while what she does is revive, then kill her post-apocalyptic doppleganger and take her mirrored combat heels. #hot

Invincible #100

Speaking of killing people who look like you, this book started when Mark's father, Omniman, turned evil and killed a bunch of people. Now, in the final issue of "The Death of Everyone", Mark is faced with a similar choice. Will he follow in his father's human-massacring footsteps????

Justice League Dark #16

Trapped in a world without magic, JLD is a JOKE. Let's just hope they're not a killing joke!

True Blood #9

The werewolf invasion comes to an end!

Hack/Slash #23 

The final girl army continues to fight it's war on slashers!

SuperQueeros! for January 2nd, 2013

HAPPY NEW YEAR! And to ring in the new year, here's this week's queer-inclusive titles:

Teen Titans #15

While the Robins are busy with this "Death in the Family" tie-in, Arsenal takes over the Titans? That sounds bad! But Batgirl will be in this issue too, so it's automatically perfect!

Justice League Dark #15

The team is hopping dimensions to save Zatanna and that lil' Havok-esque Gary Stu they've been towing around. Hopefully Madame X can set everything to rights. (Lol, j/k, she's totes gonna Cassandra everything so it's way worse and much more exciting!)

Invincible #99

Dunno if William Clockwell and his boyfriend Rick Sheridan are in this epic battle (titled "The Death of Everyone"), but if not at least there's a giant mutant T-rex!
