Justice League #3
Is it just me or does Wonder Woman make everything better? Justice League #2 was good but this issue . . . BAM! Is it the inclusion of Wonder Woman? The Aquaman cliff-hanger? The brief glimpse of Darkseid? Or the Green Lantern and The Flash constantly ragging on Batman? This issue continues where our last...
Wonder Woman #3 Review
I’m trying to figure out what it was about this issue number of Wonder Woman that leaves me with a sense of . . . ennui. Or maybe I found it boring. One or the other. Or both. Why am I giving this a “Read It” when it didn’t meet my expectation? Because I thought...
Ultimate Comics Spider-Man #1-4 Review
Holy Shit. Can I say that in a comic review? Who cares, I did. And this comic deserves it. Firstly: I must admit that I am not Marvel’s biggest fan. That’s not to say I hate them but I haven’t read Marvel in years and it’s mostly because I’d rather read about my favorite DC...
Submit to “Drawn OUT”, a Collection of Coming Out Comics
Coming out of the closet is simultaneously one of the most terrifying and exhilarating things that we, as members of the LGBT community, have to do in our lifetimes. Comic artists Kate Jade Leth and Megan Rose Gedris have taken it upon themselves to form a compilation of coming out stories by LGBT comic artists. You’ll have until March 31st...
Out and Proud: DC’s ‘Bunker’
You know what comics need? More gay people. Luckily, with the new (or new-ish) 52 relaunch, fans of the Teen Titans get just that. A brand new gay superhero. In this revised incarnation of the Titans, we get a good dose of diversity to go along with some fan favorites. Yes, we get the old...
Diesel Wants “Heroes To Rise” And So Do I!
. . . did you all get a good look at this?! True, the commercial would have been better if we had seen some models in those oh-so-smexy undies but I’m hoping we’ll be able to see some of our own Gay-Nerds in them soon enough on the forums! (Girls included; what’s sexier than a...
Is DC’s Daring Do Paying Off? (Yes)
. . . for now, anyway. Diamond Comic Distributors recently announced that DC is once again (for the second month in a row) leading in sales. Read their post here.
Wonder Woman #2 Review
It may be my inner diva, my inner mythology nerd, or a latent heterosexual desire but Wonder Woman is an amazing comic.
Justice League #2 Review
Brilliant. Entertaining. Justice League #2 has it all: Action, story, men in tights. What else do you need?
Catwoman #2 Review
Catwoman has been receiving some unfair flack as of late. Since her creation Catwoman was intended to be a sexual being; she’s a minx, a feline hottie who uses her allure to her advantage, especially in dealings with the Batman. Though the first issue featured her red underwear in more panels than I would have cared to have seen,...
Supergirl #2 Review
If you haven’t been keeping up with Supergirl, I’ll fill you in. Kara Zor-El crash landed on Earth with no memories of how she got here, no explanation for her powers, and no idea that Krypton has been destroyed. She then fights a bunch of mech-soldiers and runs into Superman, her cousin.

Top LBGT Comic Book Characters: #7 Wanda
Transgender characters aren’t always the easiest people to find in comics. Most of the time, the characters who change gender are shapeshifters and, let’s be real, that doesn’t count. This is why Wanda from Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman series comes as a breath of fresh air against all of the stale half-choices that could be...

Back Story: One of the most recognizable names when it comes to gay characters in comics, Northstar’s long history over a number of Marvel titles offers readers a chance to follow his dramatic and compelling story throughout his major life shifts. Born Jean-Paul Beaubier, he was separated from his twin sister Jeanne-Marie when his parents...

Justice League: Damnit.
The DCAU has come out with some fantastic, wonderful straight-to-DVD movies. I’m looking forward to “Batman: Year One,” which has been getting good reviews so far, and every one of their shorts is spectacular. From the DC Showcases featuring lesser known characters such as The Specter and Jonah Hex to the Captain Marvel short, I’ve...
