The Dog Knight by Jeremy Whitley, Bre Indigo
4.5
Representation: non-binary Black protagonist, Black secondary character, non-binary Black tertiary character.
Content Warning: transphobia, bullying, violence.
This was way too cute for me to function properly. Brilliant writing and art and colours. I loved it and since there is a "1" near the title now, I fervently await the sequel or sequels, if we are that lucky.

A really cute story that will certainly help out children of queer couples whose parents end up divorcing. I loved the colours and the art style, especially!

MADK, Vol. 1 by Ryo Suzuri
3.5
Representation: queer Japanese protagonist.
Content Warning: blood, gore, sadism, vorarephilia.
From the content warnings you can easily sense this is not the usual manga. It involves vorarephilia and demons and one young ex-human. Although different from what I read normally, I still found it interesting.
