- Futaba-kin Change - Gender-changing Japanese manga.

- Invasion of the Space Amazons from the Purple Planet
- $2.25. Grizmaer Productions, P.O. Box 442612, Lawrence KS, 66044.
- Haven't actually seen it, but it was reviewed in Feminist Bookstore News v. 20 no. 2 pp. 29 (July/August 1997) by Julie Mitchell. "New feminist science fiction quarterly in comic form."
- And related series in the Marvel Universe. While I was a big fan in the 80s during high school, it wasn't until the last few years that I started going back and appreciating The X-Men on a more political level. The X-Men, unlike many superhero teams, had actual real stand-alone female superheroes -- not mere adjuncts to the men. In fact the X-Men was led by a woman of color -- Storm -- for years. The X-Men also was more political in its attempt to deal with racism -- analogizing hatred of mutants to racism -- than most other comic series. And finally, the Marvel Universe introduced the first mainstream gay superhero, Northstar, in Alpha Flight #104 or #106 (1992) (Alpha Flight was a Canadian mutant superhero team). -- lq, 2003-08-08
