Killer Queens is a wide right turn from Canto, but that’s what I love about it, Booher said in a statement provided to io9. “LGBTQ representation matters, and we’ve created a fun, funny space romp that features queer characters but isn’t your typical LGBTQ storyline. The entire creative team has put their hearts and souls into making this gorgeous series, and Dark Horse has put their full faith behind it. I couldn’t be more thrilled to have readers come along for this wild ride.” Colorist Saxon is similarly excited. “ Killer Queens is a fresh and funny comic with queer characters and a retro feel, that’s also in space!” he said. “That’s something I would have been really excited to read when I was younger and, if someone told me the team that created it was LGBTQ and that I’d be a part of that very team...? It’s a dream come true! I’m really proud to be working with really talented people and I hope the readers will enjoy reading
