Hundreds of Sacramento-area students rallied to support four students suspended for wearing anti-gay shirts. One participant said: "It's only going to get worse against Christians. We're going to get persecuted more and more. But those who stand to the end: God is going to save them." Um, right...

We received a little note from our favorite gay cartoonist Andrew Georgiou telling us about his totally gay new accessories for sale. You remember Andrew, the creator of Mr. Gisby's Totally Gay Pet Shop, the insane comic you should be reading. Well it turns out that Andrew has teamed up with Shufflesome to produce a line of iPod Shuffle stickers that will definitely turn heads.

The colorful stickers feature a range of characters: Gus the leather fetish gorilla, Madame Chicolitta the dominatrix chicken, Irving the cross dressing gerbil, and Juan Jose the gay butch bull. For under $10 we find this queer iPod art a steal. Just call us Pet Shop Boys

Mr. Gisby's Totally Gay Pet Shop

Andrew Georgiou is the the mastermind behind the world's #1 gay comic strip: Mr. Gisby's Totally Gay Pet Shop. The Australian artist recently caught up with Bradford Shellhammer and answered some of Queerty's totally gay questions.

Who is Mr. Gisby and where did he come from?
Randall Seymour Gisby was born in Spain and vilified by a homophobic pit bull terrier at an early age. To cut a long story short, Mr. Gisby vowed to create a safe haven for all creatures great and small...and gay. So with the money he collected from the lawsuit against the pit bull, Mr. Gisby opened his gay animal haven, Mr. Gisby's Totally Gay Pet Shop.

Tell us about the strip.
The strip started three years ago as a series of bent scribbles and ideas I had for some twisted gay animals. The strip bases itself on one-liners using a variety of gay animals and gags, however there are also seven main characters who are reoccurring and the star players at the pet shop. These include a leather fetish gorilla, dominatrix chicken, bisexual echidna, a tranny-saurus, and a couple of other twisted creatures. Right now Mr. Gisby's Totally Gay Pet Shop appears in over 100 cities worldwide, so there are a lot of gay animal lovers out there, keeping the strip alive and growing. It's officially the biggest gay comic in print and very big in Europe in particular.

Can I be in the comic? I make a very gay and very cute cartoon.
Yes you can , so long as you sign a confidentiality clause and agree to play a bisexual / hermaphrodite anaconda with issues.

Where can we catch the strip in the US?
Currently in Qvegas magazine, Word magazine, TWN, Gaytimes, Windy City Times, and of course online at mrgisby.com.

After the jump Andrew talks about bedding models, his dream cast, and his favorite Pet Shop Boys album.
