Avengers Academy; A Light Speed Shocker!

Well, it’s not so much shocking really. Who didn’t call it? I got a vibe from Striker in his first appearance of Avengers Academy, and hello he’s a ficitonal character, but he does look like he’s been shopping in Northstars closet. Am I right ladies?

But alas, it is nice to see more LGBT diversity in the Marvel universe. And speaking of, hello lady Lightspeed [Julie Power] putting the B back in LGBT. Let us not forget those who love who they love and defy those who tell them to “choose a side” within our gay umbrella of a community. I certainly hope this new outing will make his character less obnoxious and bring a new leading gay female character into the forfront of comics again (How I miss Runaways).  Striker reminds me of if Niel Patrick Harris and Tony Stark had a baby. HUZZAH!

Ultimate Comics X-Men will be written by Nick Spencer and  drawn by Paco Medina.  The series will relaunch continuing with the continuity that has already been established in the Ultimate universe.  This title will have the feel of “Days Of Future Past” where mutants are becoming extinct, and are hunted down by order of the government. The X- Roster will consist of Kitty Pryde, Storm, Colossus, Iceman, Jimmy Hudson, Johnny Storm, Liz Allan and Karen Grant aka Jean Grey.  Rogue will also be a big part of this title, which it has been stated that this is a Rogue and Kitty focused book.  September is going to be a great month for comics with the release of Batwoman and now the relaunch of Ultimate X-Men.

Comics: Upside The Head!

Here at MaD we like to take a PSA break to forward you to sites that really are fighting the good fight for the LGBT community, even if they are in other countries. Slap Upside The Head  is a great news/political website that uses comic strips and satire to get their point across! Funny and enlightening, they are certainly something everyone should check out with posts every Monday, Wednesday and Friday!

“A Musical MARVEL” – Superman

It’s a bird…it’s a plane…it’s Superman, the musical, has blurrrred its way into Dallas!  The musical stars cutie Matt Cavenaugh as the ever spunky Clark Kent set just one year after Superman has appeared in Metropolis. His nemisis Maxwell Menken, played by Patrick Cassidy, is out to man-of-steel his thunder by becoming the city’s primero hero! 

 Exciting no?

 Well, we DON’T know. Not yet anyways. There is a pre-show, show tonight at the Dallas Theater Center at 8p.m. for all of those in the DFW area. GO check it out if you can. Do you think you  will you get another chance to see superman in tights singing his heart out without going to the gayborhood?  Nope, we didn’t think so either.

Paquin goes Rogue!…& then Bi!?!

In case you haven’t noticed, who ISN’T gay up here at Mutant A Day. For reals y’alls, we are all homosexuals and junk [insert Britney Spears accent]

In any case of course this isn’t a gossip blog, but when one of our favorite X-Men movie actresses lets the world know [and so nonchalantly I might add] that she’s a fan of the Gyne-er things in life, well hell, how can we not blog about it! Plus she’s so damn zexy when she’s southern!

The newest inductee into the LGBT community, Anna Paquin [y'all]

At Mutant A Day we love men [women too..] but you better freak’n believe we love men! And we also love to show it…[whiiiink!]

Blondes have more fun

However, if we just spent our time giving you pics of hotties with hairy chests [fictional or otherwise] we may, in fact, have to quit our day jobs.

Luckily for us there are sites like Shirtless Superheroes & french site Chest of Chests to satisfy our necessity for non-sapphic satisfaction!

Heroes Screen Cap; NBC

If you haven’t been keeping up with NBC’s Heroes then it’s time to jump on that metahuman band wagon! This season there are so many great story lines, but the most interesting to us here at MaD is the Is she or isn’t She? plot surrounding Claire Bennet’s sexuality. We smell a lez-bot, and are excited about the possibility. Do you think Miss Bennet is a shoe-in for scissoring?
