Happy #pridemonth, y’all! My next #pride book is The Pride Omnibus, written by Joe Glass and illustrated by a bevy of talented artists and colorists.
Fabman, openly gay superhero, is tired of being made fun of because of his sexuality and is tired of the queer community as a whole being seen as less than just because they’re queer. He decides to form a team of fellow queer superheroes, who are out to help everyone and discriminate against no one, and prove to the world that queer people are just as valid as anyone else.
Portraying riffs on several other comics’ teams (DC’s Justice League in particular), The Pride takes many of your typical superhero tropes and turns them on their head, creating something new yet familiar, told through a queer lens. While sometimes the message can be a little heavy handed, Glass’ story handles many of the issues that the queer community struggles with every day: acceptance, both within our families and our own community itself; prejudice; body shaming; hate crimes; thoughts of self-harm; religious persecution; the list can go on and on. The team finds positive ways to overcome these obstacles and prove that being queer is not something bad and we can all be heroes in our own ways.
This omnibus edition collected the first two series of The Pride and the first series of The Pride Adventures, one-off stories set in The Pride universe. The frequent jump between artists almost every issue was a little jarring when reading this in a collected edition, but may not have been as noticeable when read as a monthly. I hope that someday we’ll get some more adventures from those queer superheroes. The Pride can be read via @comixology as separate series, or purchased as this print omnibus from @darkhorsecomics.
I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would for an underrated all-LGBT superhero team. Thought Joe Glass had some good messages and I hope he can change the genre and allow more queer writers/artists to create more queer superheroes. Some of the queer superheroes that do exists were created by straight people (with good intentions) but feels more like pandering/baiting at times compared to people who have lived the experiences. When I was in high school all I had, as a closeted gay, was Wiccan and Hulkling to think years later I'd be reading a comic full of homosexuals make me very happy. ( )
A cheesy but ultimately enjoyable take on LGBTQ+ superheroes. A lot of the drama comes from confronting extremely homophobic people and the trauma they cause. Big issues are given a shallow comic book solution with much fighting and dramatic declamation. Most of the characters aren't deep, but they're easy enough to root for.
The first third of the book has an ongoing storyline but new artists every chapter or so. The middle third is all self-contained short stories with a whole lot of artists. The quality of the artwork by these many hands varies wildly from page to page as can the writing. The final third goes back to an extended story but settles in with one good artist and increasingly polished scripts by writer Joe Glass. ( )
