Awards Season Continues

The GLAAD Nominations have been announced. For those who aren't familiar, these awards are given out by the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation for the best LGBT representation.

Genre stuff recognized for doing it right:

Outstanding Film
Crazy Rich Asians (I had no idea there was anyone queer in this movie, which I skipped due to a general dislike of rom coms unless they're weird).
Deadpool 2 (No doubt for the cute teen lesbians)

Outstanding Drama Series
Black Lightning (for Anissa and Grace, and their wonderfully dysfunctional relationship)
Supergirl (Presumably for trans character Nia Nal, played by trans actor Nicole Maines, although they continue to write Alex very well. Except the hair. The new hair is awful)
The Handmaid's Tale (Haven't seen it)
Shadowhunters (Haven't seen it)

TV Movie or Limited Series
Sense8 - I almost wish I'd managed to see this one.

The new She-Ra and, of course, Stephen Universe are nominated for kids' programming.

Just going to copy over the comic books with notes:

Batwoman, written by Marguerite Bennett, K. Perkins (DC Comics)
Bingo Love, written by Tee Franklin (Image Comics)
Exit Stage Left: The Snagglepuss Chronicles, written by Mark Russell (DC Comics)
Fence, written by C.S. Pacat (BOOM! Studios)
Iceman, written by Sina Grace (Marvel Comics)
Lumberjanes: The Infernal Compass, written by Lilah Sturges (BOOM! Studios)

Runaways, written by Rainbow Rowell (Marvel Comics)
Star Wars: Doctor Aphra, written by Kieron Gillen, Simon Spurrier (Marvel Comics)

Iceman is bi again? Please tell me Iceman is bi again.

Please. Just. Tell. Me. Iceman. Is. Bi. Again. (Why yes, I am still salty about that).
