Transcription

Background

Further information: Orlando nightclub shooting

On the 12th of June, 2016, Omar Mateen shot and killed 49 people and wounded 53 others at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida. The nightclub was a gay bar and the perpetrator had decided to commit a mass shooting in response to the United States' airstrike a month prior that killed Abu Waheeb, a leader of the Islamic State in Anbar, Iraq. Although no evidence points to Mateen knowing the Pulse was a gay bar.[6]

Publication history

Format

Unlike most graphic novels, the book does not contain a cohesive story or several shorter stories spanning several pages but instead a mass anthology[7][8] with one or two-page-long shorts, comic strips or single illustrated pages lacking panels or dialogue bubbles.[9] IDW Publishing simply referred to it as an "oversize comic",[10] as did Goodreads,[11] Geek.com,[12] and Comic Book Resources.[13]

Stories

Many of the stories featured in Love is Love revolve around LGBT-related relationships and discrimination, and they sometimes utilize pop culture icons such as Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn, Deathstroke, and Wonder Woman. One tale is about a forgotten Golden Age superhero, Rainbow Boy, who uses his powers to fight "Doc Drumpf" and his armies of "Spider Haters".[16]

Reception

Love is Love won the 2017 Eisner Award for Best Anthology. The book holds an average rating of 9.6 by five professional critics on the review aggregation website Comic Book Roundup.[17]

The book was banned in a Texas school due to "extreme homosexuality".[18]

Officials said there is nothing to suggest that he attempted to cover up his tracks by deleting files. They also added he did not make gay slurs during the shooting spree inside the club, based on witnesses.
