by
Nubia

Wonder Woman has just got a twin sister, Nubia, and she’s our new favourite superhero. Nubia is a black warrior queen that has been announced as Diana’s true equal. DC lore explains that she was created in 1973 out of the same clay that the Wonder Woman we all know was forged. However, the new hero has led a very different life to her twin sister. After being formed by Aphrodite, she was stolen at birth by the god of war, Mars, and trained in combat. In more recent comics, Nubia proved herself as she guarded the River Styx and … Read more

Why Bisexual Visibility Matters

by
Wonder Woman

For a long time, I thought self-acceptance of my bisexuality was enough. No one asked me for a label and I experienced very little overt discrimination. I toyed with the idea of telling my folks early on, but an older lesbian friend of mine advised against it. She knew that coming out to family could be difficult at the best of times, but the limited awareness and stigma associated with bisexuality in the 90s made it even harder. Thanks to the increasing profile of bisexual+ celebrities, such as Evan Rachel Wood and Alan Cumming, bisexuality has become far more visible … Read more

REVIEW: Logan

by
Logan

LOGAN, the latest and last (for now) solo Wolverine movie, was not kidding around when it opted for Johnny Cash’s “Hurt” as its trailer music. It’s not just the severity of the title, but the elegiac lyrics, and the dying man as guiding spirit / inspiration. Some trailers lie but this one spoke world-weary truth. This is exactly the kind of movie James Mangold, who also directed the Johnny Cash biopic Walk the Line, delivers. Wolverine’s mutation were never those iconic claws, which were a science experiment to weaponize him, but his ability to instantly heal which also slows down his aging … Read more
