Rad Queers finds itself in the pages of a comic book

After almost a year between segments, artist/editor/curator/blogger Graham Kolbeins recently posted a new video in his Rad Queers series.

Edie Fake is a visual artist whose Gaylord Phoenix comic is an exploration of sexuality, gender and love. Kolbeins’s video also looks into these topics, giving Fake an opportunity to talk about the differences between them and the characters living in Phoenix. The video also includes an interview with Shannon Micheal Cane, the creator of They Shoot Homos Don’t They and who currently works at Printed Matter, which according to its website, is the “leading non-profit organization dedicated to the dissemination, understanding and appreciation of artists’ books.”

Check out the video below:

Journalist, writer, blogger, producer.
