CBQties StevieD and Scavenger speak about queer characters in comics, with author Robert Rodi and cartoonist Tony Breed. Recorded live at C2E2.
|
From the C2E2 Program:
Depictions of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender characters in comics seem to be breaking away from the purely positive "role model" portrayals that were common in comics over the past decade. Some creators aren't shying away from sex, stereotypes and bad behavior in their pursuit of intriguing and well-rounded characters.
As comics readers clamor for more explicit, more outrageous, and more extreme comics - and hail them as victories over timidity and political correctness - is it time to rewrite the rulebook on queer characters?
Join Stevie D and Joe Faust from the Comic Book Queers podcast, Robert Rodi (Codename: Knockout; Thor & Loki: Blood Brothers), Tony Breed (Finn and Charlie are Hitched) and moderator Charles "Zan" Christensen (The Mark of Aeacus; The Power Within) for a lively, irreverent discussion about the wild frontier of queers in comics.
Recorded live at C2E2 2012.

Admit it - you saw Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. Admit it - you got all tingly (down there) when you saw Ron grasp his...broom. And you could have sworn he was looking right at you through the silver screen with those hot Ginge eyes of his. Sigh.
Anyway, we cover a lot of ground in this episode. The Hot Topics include: Harry Potter, ComiCon 2009, the comic podcast - Chronic Insomnia, listener calls, and of course the latest from Marvel, Image and DC!

While Lindsay stays in her apartment, rolling on ecstacy and emailing
jpegs of her breasts to potential Republican presidential nominees in

comics, and the directions that the Marvel and DC Universes have taken.
In honor of gay pride month, we discuss how "out and proud" we are (and

Steve, Brett and Eric discuss relationship woes, then dive right in and talk about many, many comics. If you haven't read the most recent issues of Midnighter, Fables, All-Star Superman, Uncanny X-Men, X-Factor, Justice League, or Countdown, and you don't share Brett's enthusiasm for getting spoiled, look out! Your CBQ hosts also speculate which character in the X-Mansion is most likely to have a "Bob Marley: Legend" poster in their sleeping quarters.
Meanwhile, Lindsay is in the field stalking a celebrity. And I think she has beer with her.
If you want a copy of the delightful and queer "Adventures in Service", and, believe me, you do, call Brainstorm Comics at (773) 384-8721.
