Ah, the more things change.

True gender equality will only be achieved in comics when DC artists embrace Orion's Official and Canonical Jack Kirby Leisure Outfit with the passion with which they have embraced Barda's.

Barda and Cass sketch I decided to color. I really like their interactions in the current BoP run.

Anyway, Leonardo Romero's Big Barda is the best the character has looked since Jack Kirby created her, and I wish everyone could see it.

The New Gods by Carmine Di Giandomenico

[aroaessidhe]

books with ace/ace (or ace/arospec) relationships!

this is NOT about QPRs, though a couple of these are ambiguous in definition - I personally don't label a fictional relationship a QPR if it's not like, clearly discussed as a QPR without romantic interpretation, though ymmv

Aces Wild - YA contemporary, all-ace friend group, ace/ace m/nb

Little Thieves - YA fantasy trilogy, demi/demi m/f

It Sounds Like This - YA contemporary, questioining ace MC, grey-aroace possibly love interest (m/f) (it's more pre-relationship/a crush if anything? I've seen people interpret it queerplatonically so ymmv)

More Than Enough - cozy fantasy romance, ace/ace m/m (have seen some qpr interpretations but didn't read that way to me?)

Poisoned Primrose - cosy mystery series, ace/ace m/f

A Milky Way Home - demipan ace nb / demidemi woman

We Awaken - YA paranormal, ace/ace f/f

Someone You Can Build A Nest In - ace/ace f/f (one is monstery ace, one human ace)

Fourth World trilogy - YA sci-fi, demi boy x ace girl

Six Angry Girls - YA contemporary, ace/ace f/f subplot

The Tale That Twines - 70s-esque cozy high fantasy, demi-aroace/grey-aro (both agender) (okay, this is ace/arospec not ace/ace, but maybe still of interest)

(note also that there's probably a couple more in the romance genre I just...don't read much in the romance genre)

Just in case anyone forgot, there came a time when the old gods died. Like, the brave died with the cunning. The noble perished, LITERALLY locked in battle with unleashed evil. It was the last day for them!!
