Pink Kryptonite Is Looking For Writers!

pinkkryptonite.jpg

You guys may have noticed our, *ahem*, slower scheduling of posting lately. My apologies. It's something we've been needing to resolve and I'd been unable to devote much attention to it until now. We have some fantastic writers here at PK, but some are moving on and others have to devote their time to more pressing concerns (but will be back). Over time this took it's toll and left us where we are now.

That said, Pink Kryptonite is now looking for a few new writers! If you are interested in the glamorous life of an unpaid blog writer, send me two short writing samples that show your personality and style. Good topics are reviews of recent comics or comic book issues.

Writers will need to maintain a weekly post schedule of reviews and/or regular features, with a focus on gay content. Submissions will be accepted until the end of next week, and can be submitted via e-mail.

Good luck!

Sorry to be off topic (I'd love to write, but I'm too far out of the comic loop these days), but I just heard that in the up-coming Green Lantern storyline, they're going to have power rings in different colors...including a "pink" power ring! Part of me hopes the wearer isn't gay, and part of me hopes he is...it's just a little too obvious.

That's true, there are pink rings.

They represent love, and are used by the Star Sapphire Corps. (so now there are a bunch of Star Sapphires, instead of just the one). They are not used by gay characters as a gag, but Star Sapphires are only women.

Ah...I was kinda hoping for a tough, grizzled, "Max Payne as Hot Daddy" kind of guy to be the wearer of the pink ring. As I said, I'm really out of the comics loop...though I read most of them voraciously at one time (more years ago than I like to admit). I remember when Storm first got her mohawk back in the day!

Question: how can I contact you via email without having to set a "mail" account. I'm interested in contributing but not interested opening a new email account.

Thanks,
Arnie

Arnie I assume that means the link above is opening an e-mail program you don't normally use.

Just copy and paste the e-mail address it gives you into the program/webmail of your choice.

This would be such a great opportunity, too bad I'm less of a comics aficionado and more an unsavvy fan.

Are any of the other affiliated sites looking for writers? Velvet Dicebag updates less often than you guys =P

Comic of the Week

Northstar's Boyfriend Coming In January! You guys may recall I was a bit cranky about Northstar and his lack of lovin' about a year and a half ago. In fact, at the time, I issued a challenge to Marvel to get him a kiss by June 2009 or I would declare him not really gay. I have not forgotten about this. However, when the X-men moved to San Francisco this year, we were teased with the existence of what looked to be Northstar's boyfriend (and manager), so I delayed judgment until we could see more. Since then, Northstar hasn't had a lot of major appearances, as there have been about a thousand major crossover events in the Marvel universe in the last six months, and each one tends to disrupt the normal storyline for most books, including the many X-books. So I waited. Our patience seems to have been rewarded! Artist Tim Fish revealed on his blog that his upcoming story in Nation X #2 (which comes out in Jan.) is a story about Northstar, and will feature Kyle, his boyfriend in an 8-page story. I'm not sure if an actual kiss is in it, but it's implied that there is some lovin' going on. Check out some sketches of Northstar, Kyle, and Aurora below, and we'll keep you up to date when we get closer to Jan. NATION X #2 1/6/10 [TimFishWorks]...
