A great collection of stories from a wide range of voices. This book demonstrates how comics can be used so effectively both to tell personal stories and to communicate ideas.

Be Gay, Do Comics is a graphic novel filled with dozens of LGBTQ stories and experiences. Written about personal stories, queer history, pronoun preferences, gender journeys, and more.

I really enjoyed this collection of comics from different artists about different aspects of the LGBTQ community. It was a nice change to see a variety of characters that weren't just white gay men. Having stories from all over the world and history were interesting to read about as well, especially since I haven't heard of most of them before this read. I will be doing some more research that's for sure!

This graphic novel is important. Not only to share the history of the LGBTQ community that always seems to be on threat of being fully erased, but to also give light to those who may be going through their own life journey where they aren't sure exactly who they are and they're scared. This book gives them chances to see they're not alone.

Humorous, painful, fascinating. This anthology covers a lot of ground, coming around most frequently to gender identity, especially in the autobiographical pieces. But there are histories of the Lavender Scare, Pride flag, and queer uprisings; biographies of Gad Beck, Tove Jansson, and Baron von Steuben; and oodles more about haircuts, birth control, Log Cabin Republicans, and Jussie Smollett.

Stories range from one to ten pages in length, with around 40 writers/artists contributing. Unlike a lot of anthologies of this size, the subject matter is consistently interesting and the stories are consistently well done.… (altro)

I love the Nib. I'll get that out of the way right now. So, when I saw there was going to be a collection of Nib comics specifically focusing on LGBT topics, I was over the moon, and this collection didn't disappoint. It has something for everyone, incisive political commentary, interesting queer history, and personal reflections. I especially love the the ones written by nonbinary people about their experiences. As a nonbinary person, it makes me feel seen and less alone. It was also cool learning a bit about histories I didn't know beforehand, especially the other protests leading up to the Stonewall Riots.
This book is great and has a really cool variety of art styles and perspectives from different folks. I would definitely recommend this for anyone interested in LGBTQ perspectives with a bit of snark and heart.
