A new generation of LGBTQAIU comics creators are making a splash in the world of queer indie comics exploring their lives and diverse experiences. Prism Comics and Stacked Deck Press will feature some of today's most talented emerging artists in the upcoming anthology, Crush: First Love, New Talent. What challenges do genderqueer and gender non-conforming people face in finding love? How do asexual people approach romance? What complications can polyamory bring to young love? Prism Comics and moderator Tara Madison Avery (Crush, Alphabet, Stacked Deck Press), Viktor Kerney (StrangeLore, Crush), and Crush contributors Mylo Choi-Sutton, Mike Ciriaco (Stonewall Prep, WeHoTV News), Cin Woodworth and Hendrick Kneeland (Sylvan Shroom), and Max Spragovsky (Woof Galaxy) will host a lively discussion of how first loves and other timely topics are presented in comics.
