Queering SF Comics: Readings
by Ritch Calvin
The 45 essays contained in Queering Science Fiction Comics
build on the work of Queering Science Fiction (2022). The Introduction
provides a concise history of comics and of the ways in which queer
writers have made use of the comic form. These essays focus on queer
SF comics published between the years 2010 and 2023, and show that
queer writers take a variety of approaches to both science fiction and
comics.

Cul de Sac Stories
by Tamara Kaye Sellman
The neighborhoods of Cul de Sac Stories are not precisely the
safe spaces you might expect. This collection of quirky exurban tales
houses the whispered fears of mothers and daughters, crones and
maidens, neighbors both familiar and aloof. Here you’ll find the codex
through a believably terrifying apocalypse, a primer for new mothers
managing newborn shadows, sacred scriptures unspooled by a handmade
doll’s magic promise, a village’s record of a fantastical war against
mother nature, witness to a town’s sudden choreography with
catastrophe, transcripts of prescient dreams from humbled charlatans,
notes from a suburban commandeering, and a romantic liaison left
hovering in the eaves.

Tales from Mnemosyne
by Dennis Danvers
As the goddess of Memory and mother of The Muses, Mnemosyne is
uniquely qualified to set the record straight—to tell the true stories
without the usual patriarchal propaganda, all the while keeping things
fun and only slightly blasphemous. Mnemosyne as a timeless goddess
knows now and then backwards and forwards and has as much to say about
the here and now as way back when. These fourteen tales include the
most famous—Daphne and Apollo, Europa and Jove, the Birth of Athena,
Cupid and Psyche—along with some too-often-forgotten ones, such as
Tiresias and his daughter Manto, and Oenone, the abandoned wife of
Paris.

Sinking, Singing
by Gwynne Garfinkle
A young girl hears unsettling messages in the grooves of an old record
album. A washed-up horror star gets a second chance at stardom, but at
a great price. A robot rebellion is fueled by the poetry of Adrienne
Rich and Audre Lorde. In this collection of short fiction, some
characters seek to escape (often through music or magic), while others
choose to remain in the beautiful, albeit damaged, present moment.

Feraltales
by Couri Johnson
Not all women are sweet and docile princesses. Sometimes they are
witches, foxes, or dogs gone wild and looking to bite. The retelling of
old tales in this collection recognizes the feral lurking within them.
And so, a young woman, abetted by a griffin, seeks to free herself from
a literally heartless man, twelve dancing sisters lure men to their
doom, business-minded witches peddle everything from moonshine to
manufactured tragedies, and the desperate wife of a king demanding she
bear him a son makes a deal with a fox.
