COMICS: Wonder Woman Has a Sister

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

QSFer C.B. Lewis has a new alternate history MM tale out: Theodore Wentworth, who possesses little more than a sharp and well-educated mind, is trying to solicit a sponsor for his studies of Greek antiquity by performing recitations at gatherings of collectors.

“Orphan Black” star Jordan Gavaris has come out as gay. In an interview with Vulture, Gavaris, who plays Sarah’s gay brother Felix in the sci-fi series, explained he had never publicly come out because no one had asked. “I guess that’s where I’m at in terms of coming out publicly: I had this position when I started on the show that it shouldn’t matter. And I believe that. I hope that one day, the world gets to a place where you don’t need to politicize your sexuality any more than someone needs to politicize their race — that we can … Read more

Video game console giants Xbox are modifying their Avatar system, allowing players to choose gender-neutral outfits. Originally male and female characters could only dress in clothing for their genders but a new update revealed at the E3 game festival in Los Angeles on Tuesday showed a modification to this system. Designer Kathryn Storm said: ‘Our avatars are built with inclusivity absolutely in mind, with more options and flexibility.’ As well as scrapping the boy and girl choices for clothing, the update will also include wheelchairs for characters.
