pickI normally don‘t read comics, but once I found out Gabby Rivera wrote one, I had to give them a read! I loved it! I especially loved the college she‘s attending “Sotomayor U” & all the references to listening to our ancestors as well. #gabbyrivera #americachavez #marvel
pickI‘m not a knowledgeable Marvel person, and superhero comics are not hugely appealing to me, but I am a fan of author Gabby Rivera, and oh my goodness I love this superhero.
America Chavez is attending Sotomayor University where she‘s taking a class called “Intergalactic Revolutionaries & You” and, well, saving the world of course. Highly entertaining and so much fun to read.

so-soThe first queer Latina superhero written by Gabby Rivera. This has many pros and cons but it is still a fun read. This comic contains the first 6 issues.

It‘s a comics and coffee kind of morning. With homemade biscotti!
The kids were up earlier (before 7!) but decided to have a snuggle upstairs with all their stuffed animals, so a bit of peace while I have a slice of sour cherry cake and some tea. What are you up to today? The air quality here is still in the unhealthy zone so nothing outdoorsy for us.
Okay so this is America #8 not 1. I just love everything about this picture, mostly because I love America and I will use every opportunity to highlight how radical she is.
Started off my reading for 2018 with some comics; America, issues 1 through 5. The @bookriot read harder challenge this year has three comic book prompts so I thought I'd tick those off nice and early. So glad I chose America, such a unique voice in the comic landscape, something we need more off.
My #SuperHeroSaturday pick goes to the new America comic series by Gabby Rivera.
She's so bad ass. I love her. I love Gabby Rivera. Look at that artwork!!!

Was reading Juliet Takes a Breath and ran over to our local Comic Book Store to get these. They were out of 3 and4, but I got them for my Kindle.
My favourite girl helped me read this weird, wonderful, unabashedly woman-focused comic. #queerbooks #dogsoflitsy
Today I discovered my LCS has a couple of bargain bins full of recent (and recentish) issues. Even better, they had a discounted copy of AMERICA #1! I wasn't quick enough to grab it before it left the New Releases rack, so this was a happy find indeed.

pickFinished the first 3 issues of #America and they were brilliant! The characters, the setting, the storyline definitely left me wanting more in a good way. I've added the series to my pull list and I can't wait to read more. Definitely head to toe LSC & pick up an issue!

Yep. It's as good as it looks. Go ahead and stack it. You're welcome.
EDIT: I sent the Litsy team a message asking them to add this title. They had it up in like 15 minutes. Litsy is the best social network.
