Hi, Ghouls. Rainbow-striped flags are flying everywhere, which must mean it’s the best time of Pride Month. At Monster High, everyone belongs, and Pride Month is a time to skelebrate and show extra love to the LGBTQIA+ community. First, Hannah Templer (Cosmoknights) and Siobhan Keenan (Big Ethel Energy) conjure a story about expectations and role models. Clawdeen and Toralei are claws over tails for each other…but their summer DIY project, and a group of mischievous gnomes, is threatening the ghouls’ relationship! Meanwhile, Ghoulia is writing fan fiction and is on the verge of starting a shipping war! Then, Megan Brown (My Little Classics Reimagined—Little Fillies) and Bowen McCurdy (Specter Inspectors) brew a fang-tastic love story. Kieran Valentine thinks love sucks. He enlists the help of his (very cute) Bite-ology partner, Spelldon Cauldronello, to create a potion that will drain him of the feeling forever. But after spending time with Spelldon, will he have the guts to follow through? Get in from the start as IDW kicks off a whole new run of comics set on the most spooktacularly inclusive campus!
I always love seeing the diversity Monster High gives us so to have a Pride comic for it now sitting on my shelf really made me smile.
The adventures are fun and cute. We also meet some new LGBT characters too like Bridgette the troll (who’s sapphic) and her girlfriend who I adored.
Rep// Afro-Latina Sapphic MC, Sapphic MC & SC’s, MLM MC’s. There are two stories featured, one focusses on sapphic / WLW characters and the other on achillean / MLM characters.
i love monster high so much and this was absolutely delicious for pride month. there were horror-related puns on every page and the art is SOOOO good. also the messages about giving each other space in a healthy relationship??? /chef's kiss 🤌🏻 love it. also i LOVE jackie lope 😍 she looks like a viera from final fantasy xii/xiv 💖
I am a Monster High girlie and when I saw they were doing a PRIDE comic, I knew it was made for me! 😍 The comic itself is short and split into two stories. The first follows Clawdeen and Toralei as they navigate their relationship with communication. The second follows Valentine and Spelldon as they fall in love. I really enjoyed both and bought two different cover editions! 🥰 It says it's the first in a new series so I’m super excited for more! ☺️
This was such a cute comic! The stories are short and sweet, and the artwork is so lovely and fun to look at.
I've been a fan of the MH franchise for over a decade now, and I'm so happy we finally got a canon design for Spelldon, and I adore how all of the characters are portrayed across these stories. Reading this made me very happy! 💗🏳️🌈
