Just in time for Comic-Con 2023, THE LEAGUE OF LESBIANS brings together a strong band of all-female superheroes from Starlight City, home to THE HOMO HEROES. The lineup includes LIBERTY LEZ, PUSSY-IN-BOOTS, BAT BITCH, DINO DYKE, BLACK MAGIC, and other daring, female crime-fighters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis project has been a long-time dream of mine,\u201d says THE HOMO HEROES creator Todd Nunes. \u201cNow that the first seven issues of THE HOMO HEROES\u2019 have been published, I can finally focus on THE LEAGUE OF LESBIANS and their heroic exploits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While THE HOMO HEROES are the protectors of Starlight City, THE LEAGUE OF LESBIANS extend THE HEROES\u2019 efforts to other worlds and dimensions. \u201cWith LIBERTY LEZ discovering her true origins in THE HOMO HEROES initial series, she is now inspired to create her own first responder team to support THE HOMO HEROES,\u201d says Todd Nunes. \u201cThese efforts include rescuing BLACK MAGIC from the Dream Dimension, liberating a planet where men are dominated by misguided matriarchs, and using the LEAGUE\u2019s witty banter to combat their own infighting and drama.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Created by award-winning indie horror director Todd Nunes, THE HOMO HEROES\u2019 comics have been ranked #1 on Amazon Kindle\u2019s New Releases in LGBTQ+ Graphic Novels. Characters include purple-caped PRIDE, LIBERTY LEZ, DRAG-O-LICIOUS, BACK-LASH, PAPA BEAR, BAT BITCH, PUSSY-IN-BOOTS and other flamboyant do-gooders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>THE HOMO HEROES will be exhibiting at San Diego\u2019s 2023 Comic-Con in the Small Press Pavilion, booth #K-05, San Diego Convention Center, 111 Harbor Dr, San Diego, CA 92101.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ABOUT:<\/strong>&nbsp;THE HOMO HEROES showcases the LGBTQ+ community as strong, brave, courageous, and fabulous looking &#8211; just like their straight counterparts. The difference is that LGBTQ+ lifestyles, names, origins, and costumes, are integrated into the graphic novels, including being the target of homophobia &#8211; which Reverend Righteous (THE HOMO HEROES\u2019 nemesis) boldly preaches to his followers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As GLAAD has reported, \u201cNon-LGBTQ+ people who are exposed to LGBTQ media images are more likely to experience increasing levels of acceptance and comfortability towards LGBTQ people.\u201d THE HOMO HEROES furthers the goal that LGBTQ+ individuals should have the freedom to live their lives and not be discriminated against, and that schools should be a safe and accepting place for all youth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>THE HOMO HEROES Comic Books 1 &#8211; 7 are available in digital ($3.99), paperback (starting at $6.99), and hardcover ($49.99) on&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/amazon.com\/\">Amazon.com<\/a>&nbsp;as well as&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehomoheroes.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.thehomoheroes.com<\/a>.
