Comic Book Queers

Why hello and welcome to our home! And it's NOT all straight ahead!

So much fantastic cosplay at C2E2 2013.  I think the con has some of the most diverse cosplayers around and some of the hottest!

I’ve seen lots of photo parades, I think our parade features a few players that I  haven’t seen anywhere else!  Enjoy the cosplay and let us know who your favorites were.

Keep your eyes open cause you may see a few of the CBQties in the mix and a few of our favorite creators as well.

See all the shots! After the jump! Read the rest of this entry →

Wherein we discuss Gail Simone’s latest entry into DC’s New 52. A tale of the 99% fighting back against the 1%.

Steele: Hey Saro. Happy Wednesday! So, we both read DC’s New 52 comic, The Movement. Written by Gail Simone and arted by Freddie Williams II. It’s a story about 6 super powered young activists, calling themselves “The Movement”, in a battle against the corrupt Coral City police department. What did you think of the first issue?

Sarospice: I think I’ve had more exciting bowel movements. Once again FAIL GAIL tries to jump onto “something” like the OCCUPY movement without an actual story to be told. The story is a heavy handed Swiss cheese of corrupt cops and teen titans warning everyone to leave them alone or they’ll post snarky memes on Facebook about them. It’s been done before, and better!

Steele: I didn’t hate it as much as you did but I did find it a little (well a lot) heavy handed. Read the rest of this entry →
