Pride High Creator Joins Sequential Heart, Reaches Over Level 9000 In Kindness

Tommy Roddy, creator of Pride High, has recently joined the board of directors at Sequential Heart, an organization dedicated to providing homeless youth with comic books that will help motivate and inspire them. Sequential Heart was founded by Rachel Edidin, an assistant editor at Dark Horse Comics, and Dean Trippe creator of the Butterfly webcomic.

In the latest Pride High press release, Roddy has this to say:

"My own experience with this issue occured shortly after I came out to my parents in high school. Like many LGBT youth, I was forced to leave home. Luckily, through the kindness of both friends and strangers, I was able to keep a roof over my head until I reconciled with my family. I'm both thrilled and honored to be a part of Sequential Heart, as I believe strongly in helping children who have been deprived of a home, regardless of the reason,"

We here at PK are all for a noble cause and wish to congratulate Tommy, Rachel, and Dean for their efforts. Best of luck in your endeavor!

For more information on how to volunteer, send an email to: volunteers@sequentialheart.org and be sure to check their upcoming website for the latest info.

Comic of the Week

Hey Look Who Showed Up! It's Northstar! Finally! I'm now convinced that I have the mutant power to start talking about something right before it happens, as I was talking about Northstar just last week. I'll call it my 'Foot in Mouth' powers. Anyway, for those who haven't grabbed books this week, I highly recommend you pick up Uncanny X-men #508, as it brings Northstar back to the team. We discover he's been living it up as a famous snowboarder in Canada, with a boyfriend apparently. Wolverine recruits him and his sister for the team. There is some fantastic dialogue that I won't spoil at this point since it just came out, but it's very well written, so thanks should go out to Mr. Matt Fraction. Based on what happens I have a sneaking suspicion that it was written to clear up some of the angst surrounding Northstar's treatment in the last few years. So now we've seen Northstar with a love interest, can a kiss be far behind? Will it make it in time for Pride month? We'll see. Go read it!...
