The home for LGBTQA comics fans! Gay League started in late spring 1997 when AOL ruled the Internet. We picked the name as a play on Justice League. All queer nerds and allies are welcome! Peace, love, and good comics to you!

Happy Thursday! Has anyone read Bytchcraft by Aaron Reese and Lema Carril? Curious what your thoughts may be.

Unfortunately this is Reese's one and only story as the author died before the final issue of the mini series was published.

And if Epstein's presence what have you was so widespread and nefarious, then what about Ghislaine Maxwell? She can't be relatively "better" than him, so to speak.

A cover for Navigating with You Vol 2 written by Jeremy Whitley, illustrated by Felia Hanakata, colored by Linden Cahill, and lettered by Jodie Troutman. The Navigating with You logo is top center and below it Neesha Sparks and Gabby Graciana stand back to back, holding hands across a landscape divide. However, they are both being pulled in opposite directions, Neesha by a tall female figure with a prosthetic leg headed into the city and Gabby by a tall, apparently male figure headed toward the beach.

Let's call her Gayle. Naming her Gail (but definitely not @gailsimone.bsky.social) might be too on the nose. Gail is probably copyrighted and trademarked too.🫠

So Gayle fights crime & other bad actors in her secret identity. Hijinx in a break the fourth wall kind of way. (2/2)

Imagine a spy or a superhero who's dedicated their life to fight the "good fight." Now imagine that their alter ego is, let's say, a hair stylist. Let's say this stylist caters exclusively to villains of all stripes because villains want to look fabulous. Why not? Who is this stylist? (1/2)

Hegseth couldn't bother to honor the four Americans who needlessly died over the weekend in this "Operation Epic Fury" by saying their names.

At least he looks sober.

Him saying "righteous" is a dog whistle to evangelicals too.

Many years ago when I was a kid I was forced to go to a Southern Baptist church. Lasted for almost a decade. And the belief in all this nonsense is exactly the evangelical motivation. Also, some of the biggest hypocrites I've ever encountered.

I wrote this comic 2 years ago. I was terrified when I wrote it but had hope it wouldn't come to pass and would be a reminder of how bad things got before we pulled back.

It not only has, it has gotten even worse. This is absolutely terrifying and will destroy lives if passed.
