Description:
From Ignatz-Award-nominated editor Rob Kirby comes a new anthology with 241 pages of new comics from 33 contributors-legends and new faces alike. In 2012, Justin Hall edited a book called No Straight Lines: Four Decades of Queer Comics, that took readers on a journey from the beginnings of LGBT comics history to the present day. QU33R picks up where No Straight Lines left off; we've set down our history, now QU33R shines a light on our future! QU33R had its genesis in an all-color queer comic zine called THREE, which featured three stories by three creators or teams per issue. Rob Kirby published three installments of THREE annually from 2010 to 2012, and the series did well, garnering not only an Ignatz nomination for Outstanding Anthology or Collection but also earning Rob the Prism Comics Queer Press Grant in 2011. QU33R also includes work by Amanda Verwey (Manderz Totally Top Private Diary), Carlo Quispe (Uranus), Carrie McNinch (You Don't Get There From Here, The Assassin and the Whiner), Christine Smith (The Princess), Craig Bostick (Darby Crash, Go-Go Girl, Boy Trouble), David Kelly (Rainy Day Recess: The Complete Steven's Comics, Boy Trouble), Dylan "NDR" Edwards (Transposes, Politically InQueerect), Edie Fake (Gaylord Phoenix), Eric Kostiuk Williams (Hungry Bottom Comics), Ivan Velez, Jr. (Tales of the Closet, Dead High Yearbook), Jennifer Camper (Juicy Mother, Rude Girls and Dangerous Women, subGURLZ), Jose-Luis Olivares (Pansy Boy), Justin Hall (Glamazonia: The Uncanny Super-Tranny, True Travel Tales), Kris Dresen (Manya, Max & Lily, She Said), L. Nichols (Flocks, Jumbly Junkery), Marian Runk (Not a Horse Girl, The Magic Hedge), Michael Fahy (Boy Trouble), Rick Worley (A Waste of Time), Rob Kirby (THREE, Boy Trouble, Curbside), Sasha Steinberg (Stonewall, Queerotica), Sina Sparrow (Art Fag, Boy Crazy Boy), Steve MacIsaac (Shirtlifter), Terrance Griep (Scooby-Doo), and Tyler Cohen (Primahood).
