Torchwood is back, and this time John Barrowman is penning the story! Plus, this is in continuity with the Big Finish Torchwood radio plays, so once you get done reading this ou can go catch up on those episodes!

Harley Quinn #1

Harley’s back! It’s been a full week since Harley’s last series ended, and fans have been chomping at the bit for more of the clown queen of crime! Also chomping at stuff: the zombie apocalypse that has hit Coney Island! Can Harley chop her way out, or is the first issue of her solo series also the last?

Vote Loki #3

Loki tackles a crisis in Latveria. Yeah, Doom is really going to like that...

Deadpool #16 and Deadpool V Gambit #3

I’m grouping these together because the teaser for Deadpool 16 was boring. (“Find out how Deadpool became popular!” Dude, that’s what Journey Into Misery is for.) However, Deadpool v Gambit looks great! It’s a meat slinging, cook out battle!

Penny Dreadful #3

The origin story of Sembene and Malcolm Murray!

Uncanny X-Men #11

It’s that time again: time to investigate Magneto for involvement with the Hellfire Club!

SuperQueeros! for January 5th, 2011

Whoops! As you can see, I've been in NYC this week/weekend, so I wasn't able to get around to compiling Superqueeros until today! So this one is going to be short and sweet and AWESOME:

Avenegrs: Children's Crusade #4

YAY!! This title only comes out in odd numbered months, so it's always an awesome week when we get the next installment of the Billy & Teddy heavy ACC! This month we find out who Wanda's enemies are and the Avengers fight the Young Avengers (some more). But the real hook is "Teddy and Billy in a comic book!" #OTP #cutest #awww

Torchwood #6

Didn't I say that this was going to be awesome? Pre-CoE Torchwood investigates a haunted mansion and Pre-Torchwood Jack has a sexy solo adventure! #GetIt!

X-Factor #213

Spoiler Alert? The cover clearly identifies which team member is leaving (for a bit), but who's joining the X-Factor family? Also, now that Shatterstar has found out who the real father of Rahne's baby is expect Drama with a capital "D" and that rhymes with "G" and that stands for "Gayest Issue This Week"!

NB: Other notable comics out today are Steel #1 and Lady Death #1. If you know who those characters are, then you're saying "Awesome!" right now, and if you don't, here's a link to wikipedia, young'un. ;)

SuperQueeros! for December 1st, 2010

How was your Thanksgiving? Filled with comic-book AWESOME-NESS? Yeah, I thought so.

This week isn't quite as gangbusters as last week, but we have four strong titles out instead of an avalanche of limited series, and almost all of them are bringing end-of-the-year resolution to the plot threads you love!

The Authority #29

The last issue of (this volume of) The Authority! As we all know, Wildstorm is folding into the DCU (well, it's folding, and it's owned by DC. Where or when it ends up is still a mystery.), and December is the last month for its continuing series. This issue is sure to tie into the final issue of Wildcats, but the solicit is promising that the Authority is going to make it back to Earth with a Carrier full of secrets. Will one of those secrets be the solution to Wildstorm-Earth's apocalypse? And will that solution be the answer to what is about to happen to all the Wildstorm characters? Only one way to find out! #getit

Torchwood #5

It's a Gwen one-shot and the conclusion to 'Broken' in this month's Torchwood issue! I'm a Gwen fan, so I'm looking forward to this story, especially to finding out where in her timeline this story is set. Plus, Gary Russel has been knocking it out of the park with the Ianto-Jack banter in 'Broken', so I trust it will be a satisfying finish for the back-up story started way back in issue #1! It's the end of an era, so be sure to pick it up!

Buffy the Vampire Slayer#39

Speaking of eras ending, this is the second-to-last issue of BtVS: Season 8! And with no pre-released covers this month, expect the unexpected! Who will be the one to betray Buffy? Willow is facing a world without magic, Xander is facing a world with no room for humans, and Buffy is caught, unknowing, in the middle. As we've seen with Wildstorm, the Earths of comic books are not at all safe from the apocalyptic imaginations of writers. Where is Joss going to take this story?

Secret Six #28

It's the ultimate issue of 'Reptile Brain', the storyline that pitted Secret Six against Secret Six, promised a bloodbath with super-villain casualties, and delivered a bloodbath with super-villain... hugs? It also delivered a lot of shirtless Catman. So in the end everything worked out even-Steven. Since nobody died, though, how are the two Secret Sixes going to shake out post-conflict? Is this title about to become Secret Twelve, or are some people going to stay behind in Dinosaur-land? Or just head home after a hard day's slaughter? This month, we find out!

SuperQueeros! for September 29th, 2010

A much better showing this week when compared to last: two clans of ambiguously bi/gay women, two out and proud gay supes, and TORCHWOOD!

Torchwood #3

GARETH DAVID-LLOYD WROTE THE FIRST STORY! Everyone done swooning? Good: The tale involves Ianto (solo adventure?) meeting "a beautiful, deadly woman who may upend his life." So this looks like a prequel, but is it a pre-Lisa-the-Cyberwoman story or post-Cyberwoman? Is Ianto working for Torchwood One, or is this even earlier? There's only one way to find out! #buyit

(Also, Broken Part 3 is the back-up story and I think we are all eager for some inappropriately timed Ianto-Jack flirting!)

Wonder Woman #603

Last month JMS surprised us with one of the most kick-butt Wonder Woman stories I've read in a long while, and this month he adds to the growing mythology by introducing the monstrous Keres to fight Diana. Check out their wiki article here. Very exciting, no? Despite not featuring Anole, Ianto, or any visibly queer characters, this book is one of my most anticipated this month! #excited

X-Men: Legacy #240

The penultimate issue of the Dubai storyline, guest starring Anole! This'll mostly be watching Anole get his butt handed to him by the Children of the Vault until Luz steps in to save 'im (and the rest of the team), but any time in the spotlight is good time in the spotlight! Plus, maybe we'll get to see his camouflage powers interacting with Luz's light manipulation abilities!

JSA #43

Post-JLA crossover, Obsidian and his dad deal with the fall out. I am SO excited to finally get an Obsidian-centric story! Hopefully it will be a good one: I don't really know Obsidian beyond his sexuality, and, especially after putting him through the ringer, I think this book has an opportunity to redefine him as a person and a superhero. Also, maybe we will see something about his boyfriend?????

GCS #16

AWESOME CROSSOVER ALERT! Zatanna and Talia Al Ghul guest star as Catwoman is kidnapped, probably for her knowledge of Batman's identity. The December solicits are hinting at a potential secret tearing apart the Sirens: could this storyline - and Batman's impending return - be the end of this incarnation of the GCS??? It all starts here, folks!

SuperQueeros! Emergency Update!!

An egregious error on my part: I forgot to mention the Torchwood comic that comes out tomorrow! (Thanks, io9, for the reminder!) This issue follows the post-Series 2, pre-Children of Earth team as they deal with a Selkie-related murder. but who cares what the story is about, right? It's Torchwood and Ianto is in it and it's written by Barrowman and his sister. I mean, I don't think I know a single human being who is NOT going to buy this comic book!
