Recs if you like The Old Guard, vol. 1: Opening Fire...

It's free comic books day, and we love comics and graphic novels every day, so here, have over 150 of our favorite graphic novels starring queer characters. (This list is presented by Duck Prints Press, the indie publisher focused on publishing queer art and stories by queer creators! A group of us collaborate to make these recommendations.)

Sept. 25th is National Comic Book Day, and especially in light of recent platform discourse I've seen about graphic novels and manga reading and tracking on Pagebound, we definitely need more great lists for these! This list is all queer titles, recommended by people who work with Duck Prints Press (the indie publisher I run). This list is actually from 2023 so doesn't include recent stuff.

what it says on the tin

I know there are some comic book lists out there, but I was thinking about making a list of comic book series I think people should not miss (or books I would put in a Starte Pack type quest). I am excluding graphic novels and focusing on multiple-volume comics. I am only adding the first volume of each.
