REVIEW: The Dreams of Queer Utopia Will Inspire You to Dream
In a pandemic, in a time of unrest, in a world that constantly keeps marginalized people in crisis, how do we imagine an ideal future?

Time to go back to school with some comics–perfect for readers of any age. This month, we take a look at the long-awaited Doctor Who: Time Lord Victorious #1!
REVIEW: A Question of Identity in New Mutants #12
I really, really want New Mutants to be great. It’s been…solid, for the first year, but against the rest of the current X-Men line, is solid really enough?
REVIEW: Bill and Ted are Doomed #1 Rocks Out
In the first issue of this Bill and Ted Face the Music prequel comic, much fun is had, and an intriguing plot is born.
REVIEW: X-Force #12: Fuck Off, Hank
The thing about X-Force is that somehow, after a full twelve issues, what would’ve been a year’s worth of comics in non-COVID times, I still keep wanting to come back to it, review work aside. That it accomplishes this despite featuring two characters I’ve come to despise is impressive.

LONG LIVE THE RED QUEEN! Kate Pryde is back, and ready to take some revenge on the Black King. But first, she has some people to see and places to go in Marauders #12.

Decided via a free online poll, the Dragon Awards recognise science fiction and fantasy novels,…
REVIEW: John Constantine: Hellblazer #9 is Fantastically Filthy
John Constantine: Hellblazer #9, like the previous issues, is a story about ideas. All stories are to some extent about ideas, but this run of Hellblazer goes a step further, pushing at the boundaries of truth, concepts, and abstracts until all three blur together.
REVIEW: The Strange Satire of X-Factor #2
Leah Williams and David Baldeon kicked off the new X-Factor last month with the story of Jean-Paul Beaubier (Northstar) gathering a team to investigate the death of his sister, Jeanne-Marie Beaubier (Aurora), in hopes of resurrecting her on Krakoa. This month’s issue begins with Aurora and Northstar’s reunion and quickly moves to X-Factor’s newest case,…
