I honestly don’t have the words. Brutal. Beautiful.

I keep trying to organize my thoughts on this series into something coherent but I really should just accept the fact that that is not going to happen. I love this series so much! As a kid, I was OBSESSED with the X-Men movies and as I got older I realized it was because it was all a thinly veiled metaphor for being queer. So the fact that this series is basically X-Men but 1000% more queer gives me life and is why I refuse to shut up about how much I love this series.
I am extremely excited to see how this series keeps evolving and growing. Serious shit happens with serious consequences and it feels like the characters are realistically dealing with that trauma. But interspersed throughout this pretty series story arc are these beautiful fluffy moments.
So yes, it will surprise no one that I HIGHLY recommend this series and I just really need more people to read about these wonderful queer mutants!
