DIGITAL REWARD!

PRIDE Month is all year long at FairSquare Comics and we decided to celebrate Love like there’s no tomorrow!
Here are three graphic novels (550 pages worth of content) with different Queer experiences:

• A BOY NAMED ROSE: Created, written and beautifully drawn by Gaelle Geniller, A BOY NAMED ROSE is going to make you fall in love with this story, set in Art Deco Paris and where a young man discovers who he really is in a place filled with entertainment and drama. What is Rose’s place in the world? Is he just a boy? Is he a girl inside? Rose just wants to be accepted for who he really is and live, love and dance as free as he can be.
Nominated for an Eisner Award and a Harvey Award, critics are praising this beautiful book, like The Comics Journal: “It’a a pleasure to see so many shades of queerness and self-expression now available in comics. Rose is born a boy but dresses as a girl and dances in the cabaret in 1920s Paris in this dreamlike historical romance.”

• HAPPY ENDINGS: Once upon a time, there was a cemetery gardener who fell in love with a professional grave mourner, with a look of a ghost. Once upon a time, there was an Art student who asked a young man to pose for her on New Year’s Eve. Once upon a time, there were agents from the future sent to our present, to a small seaside town, to fix a temporal cat related paradox. They found themselves enjoying Italian ice cream while watching sunsets and no longer wanted to return to their dimension. And they ended up… who knows where. All beautiful things must come to an end, but if we must choose, let it be beautiful.

In HAPPY ENDINGS, the new hit graphic novel from Lucie Bryon (Thieves), stories are intwined and mostly Queer. And they all end up with a smile.

• DEAR BODY: A Non-Fiction Body Positive Graphic Novel. Introducing “Dear Body” – a visually stunning and emotionally powerful graphic novel that invites you to reconnect with your body and learn to love yourself from the inside out.

Created and illustrated 12 women and non binary under guidance from writer and director Lea Bordier, “Dear Body” is a moving exploration of the relationship we have with our bodies. In a world that constantly bombards us with messages about how we should look and what we should do to achieve the “perfect” body, this graphic novel provides a refreshing and much-needed perspective.

“Dear Body” takes you on a journey of self-discovery and self-love.
