I really did not expect to be looking at a comic book and crying today. This was just so beautiful. Escapade stars in the latest installment of Marvel Voices Infinity, written by the incredible Anthony Oliveira with art by Cara McGee and colors by Carlos Lopez and lettering by Travis Lanham. Hot damn. I loved this so much, it was perfect.

A little fun & sweet moment that happened my girlfriend (she/they) recently & I really want to share it <3
I introduced my girlfriend to New Mutants not too long ago, and she really likes it now, and they also grew to like Shela. And just recently, they found out Shela was a trans woman. She was absolutely over the moon excited. (& it was very cute & heartwarming to say the least.) From what I recall, that was her first time seeing a trans mutant, and she was so excited to with that representation (as a trans woman themself)
I just want to thank @charliejaneanders for honestly making such an impact, and making my girlfriend feel so happy & noticed. Seeing someone so thrilled by feeling seen & in something they love so much really truly shows the importance of characters such as Shela.
And fun fact, she and I want to cosplay Martha & Shela together. Bring the ship to life! We're very excited 🤍

We have a new asexual Marvel character! Morgan Red from New Mutants has been confirmed as asexual by creator Charlie Jane Anders @charliejaneanders in an interview with AIPT.
I think with Morgan, it’s partly about having philosophical issues with a mutant separatist state, but also about feeling as though the “mutant” label does not define them. Morgan is also trans, Chinese, Jewish, and asexual, and those things also matter.
Read the full interview here.
Since first debuting last year in Marvel’s Pride anthology for the story Permanent Sleepover, Morgan has appeared in New Mutants and New Mutants Lethal Legion.
Morgan is on the cover for Marvel’s Voices: Pride 2023, although we don’t know if he will be featured in this year’s anthology as full announcements have yet to come out.
Fingers crossed!
Update:
Charlie Jane Anders has said that Morgan’s asexuality will be shown on page in New Mutants Lethal Legion #5 which should be out in July! (source)

NEW MUTANTS: LETHAL LEGION, my Marvel miniseries full of gay feelings and heists and trauma and trans heroism, got shortlisted for a GLAAD media award alongside some of my fav creators. Hot damn! ICYMI the trade paperback collection came out yesterday....

coining the ship name "Escabella" for Shela/Martha, hope it catches on, though doesn't seem like many other people are talking about the characters rn
