SuperQueeros! for March 7th, 2011

So comixology has a preview of Avengers: The Children's Crusade, but no issue seems forth coming. What we do have is new installments of some of the best Queer-inclusive books on the shelf today!

EDIT: AVENGERS THE CHILDREN'S CRUSADE CAME OUT TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! READ IT!!!!!!!!!

Stormwatch #7

Last issue ended with the Projectionist revealing the coming of the GRAVITY MINERS! I don't know what that means, or how it will play out (Well? Crappy? Gravity-well?), but it expands the universe of Stormwatch while we wait for the Planetary-esque storyline they established last issue to pick up, so I can't be against it.

And speaking of last issue, I love Paul Jenkins' Midnighter! He's... such a bad-ass! Like, really, truly, the explicitly gay Batman! He even says, "I'm the damn Midnighter!", as if Paul Jenkins were an awesome-r Frank Miller! And Apollo really doesn't suck as much either. In the earlier incarnation of the character he became a sort of shadow to Midnighter, a sub-y muscle bunny good only for kisses and deus ex machina. He's still a little directionless (if he hates superheroes why is he joining Stormwatch???), but I've done stupid things for a boy before, and this cocky Midnighter is seducing ME. What chance does 2-D Apollo have if Midnighter's appeal works on three dimensional people?? Basically I'm loving this reboot, especially now that they offed Adam One.

But, anyway, gravity miners. And stuff.

Avengers Academy #27

The Runaways!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So, Chase is alive and Gert isn't. Who KNOWS what Kathryn Immonen's cliffhanger even meant now, but we get an issue of Striker vs. Victor (HOT) and the first reunion of Karolina and Julie Power since the Loners debuted in volume 2 of Runaways! Also HOT!! #fangasm

i, Zombie #23

It's Gwen vs a mad scientist. Maybe some Spot too?
