Magical Boy Bd. 1 (ab 13 J.)

Sehr schöne, humorvolle Graphic Novel über einen trans* Jungen namens Max, der sich gemäß Familienerbe, um Monster zu bekämpfen, in eine magische Gottheit verwandelt. Max gefällt das dazugehörige feminine Aussehen samt Kleid überhaupt nicht, doch mit der Zeit schafft er es, dieses zu beeinflussen. Schöne Idee: Während Max häufig mit seinem Deadname angesprochen wird, ist dieser im Comic unleserlich gemacht. TW: Deadnaming, Misgendering, Homo- und Trans*feindlichkeit, Spinnen- und Insekten-ähnliche Monster.

Band 2 gibt es hier.

Verlagsbeschreibung:

A breathtakingly imaginative fantasy series starring Max—a high schooler chosen to become the next "Magical Girl." There's just one catch . . . he's a trans boy!

Although he was assigned female at birth, Max is your average trans man trying to get through high school as himself. But on top of classes, crushes, and coming out, Max's life is turned upside down when his mom reveals an eons old family secret: he's descended from a long line of Magical Girls tasked with defending humanity from a dark, ancient evil! With a sassy feline sidekick and loyal gang of friends by his side, can Max take on his destiny, save the world, and become the next Magical Boy? A hilarious and heartfelt riff on the magical girl genre made popular by teen manga series, Magical Boy is a one-of-a-kind fantasy series that comic readers of all ages will love.
