I’ve recently been in superhero comics mode (more specifically Batman) and have been going through any I can find through my library’s Hoopla.
I knew that there were some queer DC heroes (Tim Drake, Kate Kane, Jon Kent) but to see so many put together in one book was amazing. I was very much so tearing up as I started reading this even though it’s not even a story, just a collection of queer characters. One of the best things was that in addition to listing allies, likes, and dislikes, each hero had their first appearance listed.
Also having Kate Kane list Rosh Hashanah as one of her favorite things made me so incredibly happy! Queer Jewish rep is even more important to me!
