It's been a while since we last checked in on our nerdalicious queer comrades over at Gay League, so we thought we'd head on over to give 'em a shout. Once there we saw this announcement: "NEW! CLEVER! SEXY! FUN! The Queen of Diamonds sixth issue, POP CULTURE BITES is now available!" After shaking off all that exclamatory shock, we clicked on through to see what the hell all the excitement was about. And we found what may be one of our favorite internet-related discoveries.

Created by Bevis Musson and Alistair Pulling, The Queen of Diamonds is Britain's very own gay super-hero. That's right: a total flamer who totally beat up bad guys. While Musson and Pulling don't always make a big deal about Q.D.'s cock-sucking, it's definitely apparent. Musson says:

...To be honest he's the kind of character that only a gay man could write. ...[H]e is a big stereotype, but that's me. I'm camp and love Marilyn and musicals and stuff and as a result the Queen does, too. It's not a comic that's making a point though. It's not a comic that's about a gay superhero, it's a comic about a superhero and his life and his problems and there's also the fact he's gay, although you'd have to be a bit dim not to notice he's gay.

As for him being a stereotype - we think that's even better. Dress a stereotype in some tights and cape and we're in love. Remember Handyman from In Living Color? Fucking brilliant. We bet the Queer Eye boys could have rubbed out another season if they just pulled on some rubber.
