Queer Comic Book Character: Moondragon (Oct 13th)

Heather Douglas aka Moondragon is featured prominently in Marvel’s cosmic tales. In the past, she’s gone back and forth between being a good guy and a villain, but these days, she’s mostly a hero. Moondragon has a great telepathic power. In fact, she may be the most powerful telepath in the Marvel universe, and writers seem to run into the trouble as she can be too powerful. Especially when going against Marvel’s favorite male characters like Thor, Doctor Strange, and Thanos. At one point, she even possessed the Mind Gem, one of the Infinity Gems.

Reviews Incredible Hulk: Future Imperfect #1

Seems I’ve been letting boys invade this blog. This guest blogger is Jason Sellers, my partner. I’m Donna to his Doctor; or more like he’s the Francine to my Katchoo. Only we have less problems.

I’d heard of this story before, and I knew it was supposed to be one of the most renowned Hulk story arcs. Originally published in 1992, Marvel solicits this story as a “career-defining” story from “perhaps the greatest Hulk writer in comics history” that ranks “among the classics in Marvel history.”

David’s story takes place in the post-apocalyptic city of Distopia. At the start, a group of people are running through the crowds talking about some sort of plans. These must be the good guys! How do you know? Well, for starters, one of the women gets shot in the head by super-future-robot cops by the fifth page! Continue reading “Reviews Incredible Hulk: Future Imperfect #1”
