Indya Moore may be best known for striking epic postures on FX’s Pose, but she’s also a huge sci-fi nerd. That’s partially what made her decide to join Magic Hour, a new sci-fi anthology project helmed by Brooklyn-based writer Che Grayson. Another reason is the content: It’s science fiction through an LGBTQ lens.

Just to be clear, before we get into a pretty spoilery rundown of what happened on Supergirl last night, Agent Liberty—who we know to be played by the very chiseled Sam Witwer—did not whip off his goofy bronze mask to show the even more bronzed visage of the 45th President of the United States. Please do not assume…

The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina is going to be spooky, sure, but it might be pretty progressive, too.

By the time Eddie Brock explains that he believes the alien symbiote he’s bonded with is literally “up [his] ass” when he’s not wearing it like a terrifying suit of armor, it’s impossible to deny that Sony made an effort to at least partially acknowledge the inherent raunchiness and sexual subtext of the movie’s…

Months ago, Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald director David Yates courted controversy among some Harry Potter fans by saying that the movie—despite featuring a young Dumbledore grappling with confronting his now-villainous love interest—would not address author J.K. Rowling’s post-book reveal that…

In a recent interview with Queerty, former Sesame Street writer Mark Saltzman, who is openly gay, explained how he drew upon his own relationship with editor Arnold Glassman as inspiration for Bert and Ernie, the show’s most popular confirmed bachelors. This revelation was interesting enough that Sesame Street itself…

Though Adventure Time’s series finale brought Finn and Jake’s televised adventures to an end this week, the event also confirmed one of the most interesting and longstanding theories about the show that astonished and delighted many fans.

The distinct undertones of loss and mourning throughout Adventure Time’s hour-long finale, “Come Along With Me,” feel both appropriate for the special’s focus on the Great Gum War and at odds with the larger show’s generally optimistic worldview.

It’s a fact that queer people throw the best parties (come at me straights!). So, obviously, the Ignite! kick-off party for Flame Con 2018—the quintessential convention for LGBTQ+ fandom—was on our must-attend and must-film list.

Every year, LGBTQ+ comic book fans gather in New York City for Flame Con, a celebration of queer culture in modern fandom organized by Geeks Out. io9 was there for the weekend-long event, which was complete with amazing cosplay, fan art, and lots of love and pride.

Webcomics aren’t a novelty. Nor are they this up-and-coming thing I “have to tell you about.” They are part of the cultural pantheon, the nerdy landscape—launching successful careers, conventions, and memes that have adorned everything from t-shirts to energy drinks. But sometimes, even when a comics genre is known,…

Voltron: Legendary Defender’s creative team shook the fandom to its core at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con when it announced the show’s seventh season would address Shiro being a gay man and introduce his same-sex partner, but the show’s depiction of a queer relationship understandably left many fans cold.

Even if you weren’t there in the San Diego Comic-Con hall where it was first announced that Voltron: Legendary Defender’s Shiro is a gay man whose relationship would be explored in the show’s seventh season, fans made sure the world knew.

Even though Steven Universe is technically about a bunch of sentient rocks whose humanoid physical forms are just hard light constructs, the show’s gems are presented as female and the emotional relationships between them are coded as queer.

The CW has enlisted Ruby Rose (The Meg) to be their live-action Kate Kane in the upcoming Arrow/Flash/Supergirl crossover special and next year’s potential Batwoman series from Caroline Dries. The moment her casting was announced, it immediately clicked. But now, the actress is sharing just how much like Batwoman she…

The CW has apparently found its Batwoman: Ruby Rose is heading to Gotham City.

The cast of Supergirl came to this year’s San Diego Comic-Con to present a brief glimpse at the impending alien invasion that will shake National City to its core, but soon after the Con-exclusive sizzle reel ended, the show’s newest cast member made a surprise appearance on stage and announced an important moment in…

This autumn, Kate Kane was set to descend on the CW’s Arrowverse as a part of its now-traditional multi-show crossover. But Gotham might be about to become a permanent fixture for Ollie and friends, because the CW is planning a potential a Batwoman TV show for 2019.

Steven Universe is, without a doubt, one of the most groundbreaking television shows airing right now because of its strong messages about queer positivity, inclusion, and the power of love.
