After hungrily blitzing through the delightfully punderful comic Poly In Pictures, I asked creator Cassian Lotte Lodge (twitter/tumblr) if they’d like to chat about art, knitting and LGBTQ representation. And after much fan-personing over Doctor Who – we eventually did that. How would you describe your comic, Poly in Pictures? Cassian: I am a very literal person, to warn you in advance! I would describe it as stick people on photographs talking about polyamory, gender, and sexuality – much of it inspired by my shower thoughts and making myself laugh. Where do you find or take those photos for the backgrounds? Cassian: Sometimes I haveRead More →

I sit down for another cross-continental interview: This time with queer-comics author and artist Blue Delliquanti. Blue’s comic O Human Star is a clever and beautiful story, following the father of the robot revolution Alistair Sterling, from untimely death to his even more unexpected revival – in a new synthetic body, 16 years later. In this time his work has been continued and expanded upon by his old partner Brendan Pinsky to the point where cybernetically enhanced people and full-on robots have become commonplace. Despite all this tech and progress though, Brendan says he has no idea who could have successfully revived Al, or why.Read More →

I’ve finally finished moving! Since I last posted: New Job, New Cat, New a whole lotta things. Including: New Videos. If you follow my twitter or instagram – you know I love Drag. I love genderplay. I love costume and creativity. And so, with some reservations, I FREAKING ADORE RuPaul’s Drag Race. As does Mke – so together we’re watching and providing Rifftrax-style commentary for, all of Season 6. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RpF3yvbm0sM&list=PL7pJ1UadEj2trbOgpV4bPgz295b2YwhFX;&w=500;s=10] I’ve started sharing my film recommendations for this spoopy season. Horror recommendations for squeamish people. First up: Cabin in the Woods. (Though honestly, if you’ve not seen it – just watch it now, spoiler free,Read More →

Sorry about the recent absence – been binging on job-applications. Huzzah for making ends meet. At longest last I’ve started “Let’s Gay”, a let’s play series where I play co-op games with my partner Micheal, with comedic, review-esque, and infuriating results. We’re also wanting to review some films together, and drag race, so look forward to that in the coming months. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?WVfY4-7_X3k?list=PL7pJ1UadEj2vpR5_YzQByx-LIOgnoXfeU&w=500;s=10] Also I’m vlogging again, talking about life and comics. Mostly comics. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmrs6hIyonM&w=500;s=10] Both of these things will be updated more frequently once our internet is finally, FINALLY upgraded, as we paid for over a month ago >_> Oh, also coming soon – aRead More →

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxG2Csqv4zA&w=500;s=10]   I just cannot get enough of The Switch; the Transgender Comedy that will be hitting American and Canadian television late next year. And while I have plugged it before, when have I been able to resist an interview with some charming and hilarious Canadians? Amy Fox (Series Creator, actor; Chris) and Chance Odin (actor; Phil) join me for a chat about the show’s origins and development, the Kickstarter’s progression and what we can look forward to in the Season 1 debut. Not only will The Switch be bringing a transgender lead character to our screens for the first time – Sü will beRead More →

It’s been a while since I did one of these – and I think a new digest is long overdue: Feast your eyes upon these colossai of creativity! Contrived Setups to Niche Pop-Culture References Paul Savage is an incredibly fun and charming Stand-up Comedian and MC based in the UK – and now, not only can I recommend you check out one of his shows (like his upcoming Edinburgh Fringe run), but also his brand-new comic; Contrived Setups to Niche Pop-Culture References. The comic medium suits Paul’s style incredibly well – He’s like the bacon of comedy: big, delicious and addictive pieces of wit, inRead More →

x-men days of future past review

In: Comic, Film, Review

It would seem that First Class was not a fluke, and that the retconned (not rebooted) X-Men films have a very bright future ahead of them and I could not be more thrilled about it. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YAm0ePUg3U4&w=500] Spoiler Corner One of the strongest parts of this film was it’s ability to stretch it’s characters – to take these established icons and force them into scenarios so alien to them that they become different people. Seeing Wolverine banned from combat and need to mediate people (far far FAR from his comfort zone of X-Force, the mutant kill-squad) is a brilliant tool to develop him further. Since he’sRead More →
