Queerbait

In 2006, Heroscribe launched Queerbait, a single-issue comic that stands as a sharp, standalone statement from the mid-2000s indie scene. Illustrated by Brian Brinlee, the series is a compact, provocative exploration of identity and perception, notable for its early, unflinching engagement with LGBTQ+ themes in a medium then still grappling with representation. Though brief, it remains a cited touchstone for its era's push toward more authentic queer narratives in comics.
