Talking ASEXUALITY IN THE X-MEN…

By Duna Haller

on October 25, 2021

Last Saturday, Mutant Watch invited Patti from X-Men podcast Mutant Musings to discuss asexual representation in X-Men comics. Rapidly facing the fact that explicit representation is practically absent from the canon, we wrapped our head around subtext, headcanons, possibilities and the particular challenges of portraying asexuality (and therefore failures of X-Men comics in doing so). There’s talks about Illyana and Doug from New Mutants, Nature Girl and Eye Boy from Generation X, Laura Kinney, Benny from Children of the Atom, and more. Watch the full discussion here:

I'm a writer, musician, collagist, and more generally a very nerd grrrl. Some of my favorite comics are New Mutants, Jem and the Holograms, Snotgirl and Monstress. I have also been published in different poetry books, anthologies and zines, and with a short story in '99% Chance of Magic: Stories of Strength and Hope for Transgender Kids'.
