Femme Power Comix

Just a resounding, messy, teary-eyed thank you for all of the support over the last few years. We went from posting photos of our favorite feminist comics into the void of social media to opening our own store to share those stories with folks in our community in real time (including free Q***r books for youth available no questions asked all the time always), and that’s thanks to the support we’ve found here.

When we started this page a few years ago, we felt it best to remove our faces & names after repeated threats of physical & s*xual violence, and yesterday, our photos were on the front page of The Baltimore Sun shouting about Q***r comics and the life-changing and saving role of representation (and we only got one vaguely threatening message)!

If you’d like to read the article, it’s linked in our bio, but ultimately, we just wanted to say thank you, and if you’re ever in Baltimore, we hope you’ll come visit 💖

Happy National Superhero Day, friends!

There is no shortage of aspirational costumed heroes to celebrate today, but we hope you can celebrate the hero in you a little bit too 💗

It’s been far too long since we’ve done a post, but we’re in love with this cover by for Miles Morales: Spider-Man #25, hitting shelves tomorrow!

Simu Liu decided to gift everyone else something special on his birthday- the first look at the official teaser poster for Marvel Studios’ upcoming film Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings!

Are you looking forward to the film’s release in September? We’ve been in love with Simu on the Canadian comedy Kim’s Convenience for the last five years and can’t wait to see him on the silver screen!
