Spandex : The New Gay Comic Book Series By Martin Eden

Created by Martin Eden, Spandex is a brand new comic book series that brings a fresh angle to the superhero world because instead of being made up of super powerful heterosexuals, this is an all gay super team.

Telling the Metro that he “…felt that a gay super-team was something that hadn’t been done before. It just felt very fresh and original”, Eden’s Spandex series follows transvestite Liberty and her team of gay heroes on a range of adventures including battles against gay enemies such as the Pink Ninjas and the 50ft Lesbian.

The first edition of Spandex is now available from selected comic stores and the Spandex Comic website and acts as an introduction to both the characters, which include Diva, a beautiful lesbian who you definitely wouldn’t want to get into a fight with, Glitter, a superhero with the very useful talent of turning himself into light, Mr Muscles and Butch, rock hard skinned twins, one who is invulnerable, the other super strong, Prowler, who has the ability to absorb the skills and ability of any gay person, Indigo, an energetic young thing with teleportation skills and Liberty, the transvestite with her own Gaydar and power suit that gives her strength and flight, as well as their Brighton headquarters.

Titled “The Attack of the 50 Foot Lesbian”, this first story is an impressive 23 pages long, with 17 pages of extras, and took Eden a whole year (he’s created it alongside a full time job) to complete, showing his commitment to getting it just right.

The Spandex comic series  is aimed at mature readers and is already proving popular with both gay and straight readers.

Spandex is available to order online from the Spandex Comic website.
