After a recent furor over the untimely death of Lexa in the US apocalyptic drama ‘The 100’, fans of the show have called for more realistic representation of lesbian romance in media.
Aza Comics is hoping to buck the trend by creating lesbian superheroes that won’t die so quickly.
In its upcoming book series two lesbian superheroes, Genie and Jase, cooperate to overcome various challenges and develop a lasting romance together.
‘Their storylines are based on how they work together as an action duo to fight villains and overcome obstacles,’ writer Jazmin Truesdale told Gay Star News.
