The creators of the popular website Black Nerd Problems bring their witty and unflinching insight to this engaging collection of pop culture essays—on everything from Mario Kart to issues of representation—that “will fill you with joy and give you hope for the future of geek culture” (Ernest Cline, #1 New York Times bestselling author). When William Evans and Omar Holmon founded Black Nerd Problems, they had no idea whether anyone beyond their small circle of friends would be interested in their little corner of the internet. But soon after launching, they were surprised to find out that there was a wide community of people who hungered for fresh perspectives on all things nerdy. In the years since, Evans and Holmon have built a large, dedicated fanbase eager for their brand of cultural critiques, whether in the form of a laugh-out-loud, raucous Game of Thrones episode recap or an eloquent essay on dealing with grief through stand-up comedy. Now, they are ready to take the next step with this vibrant and hilarious essay collection, which covers everything from X-Men to Breonna Taylor with “alternately hilarious, thought-provoking, and passionate” (School Library Journal) insight and intelligence. A much needed and fresh pop culture critique from the perspective of people of color, “this hugely entertaining, eminently thoughtful collection is a master class in how powerful—and fun—cultural criticism can be” (Publishers Weekly, starred review).

Portraits and texts recover lost queer history: the lives of people who didn't conform to gender norms, from the fifteenth through the twentieth centuries. “A serious—and seriously successful—queer history recovery project.” —Publishers Weekly Katherina Hetzeldorfer, tried “for a crime that didn't have a name” (same sex sexual relations) and sentenced to death by drowning in 1477; Charles aka Mary Hamilton, publicly whipped for impersonating a man in eighteenth-century England; Clara, aka “Big Ben,” over whom two jealous women fought in 1926 New York: these are just three of the lives that the artist Ria Brodell has reclaimed for queer history in Butch Heroes. Brodell offers a series of twenty-eight portraits of forgotten but heroic figures, each accompanied by a brief biographical note. They are individuals who were assigned female at birth but whose gender presentation was more masculine than feminine, who did not want to enter into heterosexual marriage, and who often faced dire punishment for being themselves. Brodell's detailed and witty paintings are modeled on Catholic holy cards, slyly subverting a religious template. The portraits and the texts offer intriguing hints of lost lives: cats lounge in the background of domestic settings; one of the figures is said to have been employed variously as “a prophet, a soldier, or a textile worker”; another casually holds a lit cigarette. Brodell did extensive research for each portrait, piecing together a life from historical accounts, maps, journals, paintings, drawings, and photographs, finding the heroic in the forgotten.

Even if the cost of a new life with him meant the loss of my old life and everything I thought I held dear. *Book One in the Anti-Heroes in Love Duet.*

The outline of this story is: A long time ago, the Ice Age Avengers were a group of amazing animals who looked after their icy home. They couldn't be beaten because each person had special skills. Frostbite was a bad sorcerer who wanted to freeze the land and take control of it. He and his army of frost trolls froze rivers and put the animals of the Ice Kingdom in danger. Frosty, Blizzard, Crystal, Avalanche, and Breezy, the Ice Age Avengers, watched over their home. Frostbite attacked the Avengers because he was angry. Frostbite fought bravely against the Avengers. Blizzard's snow skills kept Frostbite safe, Crystal cut his legs, and Avalanche threw him away. The goodbye kiss on the lips from Breezy calmed Frostbite. Frostbite's response was to make a huge ice storm on the battlefield. The Ice Age Avengers made a circle to protect themselves from the ice. When Frosty's loud roar broke through the ice storm, it showed Frostbite's weakness. Frostbite's feet were frozen, Crystal broke through his barrier, and Avalanche buried the magician under a snowy mountain. Frostbite lost because Breezy's wind took his icy cap away. The Ice Age Avengers were able to beat Frostbite. In honor of their courage, a feast was held. The animals praised them for being brave and determined to protect their home. The Ice Age Avengers were not happy with their win, so they became teachers and guides. They taught young animals how to use their skills and become heroes. The bravery, unity, and care for the environment of the new generation kept the icy country going. The Ice Age Avengers were important to kids all over the world. They wanted these heroes to save the world. The story was about getting along with others and taking care of the world. The Ice Age Avengers made a lasting impact on people who heard them. It made people of all ages want to protect the earth. The story showed that if people work together, they can get past any problem and build a future with peace, unity, and many options. This is how the story starts: A long time ago, a group of very special animals was in grave danger. Frostholm, their dream ice home, was in danger. The earth was being hurt by the melting of icebergs. To save their home, the animals had to work together. They put together a unique team called the Ice Age Avengers. Each member had a special skill that made them able to stop any threat. Frosty, a smart polar bear, was in charge of the Ice Age Avengers. Frosty could stand the cold because he had thick fur and sharp claws. He made decisions, had a plan, and led. The Ice Age Avengers got stronger when he was in charge. Blizzard, a quick Arctic fox, came after them quickly. Blizzard's tail flicked in a way that made snow and ice move. He made ice sculptures and snowstorms to trick their foes. Blizzard's creativity and ability to think quickly were key to the team's success. Crystal, the beautiful snow leopard, is incredibly quick and sneaky. She moved quietly across the snow on her white fur and sharp claws. Crystal watched over the Ice Age Avengers' home to keep it safe. A huge avalanche was coming their way. To keep people from coming after him, he might cut down trees and make big snowslides. The Avalanche fought hard and strong to protect the Ice Age Avengers. Breezy, a small but active penguin, is the last one. Breezy's drive and determination made her seem bigger than she was. She was a skilled swimmer, even in cold water. The team was inspired by Breezy's drive to get through tough times. The Ice Age Avengers promised to keep a threat away from Frostholm and its people. They stood together, and their skills, from melting icebergs to avoiding predators, complemented each other. Frosty was a smart leader who saw dangers and came up with ways to deal with them. Blizzard's blizzards slowed down the dangers that were about to happen. Crystal quickly found out about any risks. The tusks of the avalanche protected its land. Breezy moved quickly through the water, finding out what was going on and telling her friends that trouble was coming. They were able to keep Frostholm safe and maintain the balance of their ice home. As the icebergs moved more slowly, the atmosphere got better. The animals of Frostholm praised the Ice Age Avengers for how brave and united they were. Animals from all over the world were moved by how brave they were. The icy winds spread news of what the Ice Age Avengers had done, inspiring animals all over the world to protect their homes. The Ice Age Avengers will always be remembered in history and in the hearts of everyone who loved their cold home. Their story taught us to work together, be strong, and be happy with what makes us different. As long as there was ice, the Ice Age Avengers story was told. The victory of the Ice Age Avengers was used to help keep nature's delicate balance. They told their story to animals of different ages and from different places. They talked about how people hurt the world and how to work together. Children from other countries were really interested in the Ice Age Avengers story. They wanted to join such a great team and protect their homes like the heroes they looked up to. Because of how brave the Ice Age Avengers were, the kids formed teams to protect their natural surroundings. In Frostholm, Frost Academy was where the Ice Age Avengers learned how to fight. The Avengers taught amazing skills to young animals. They learned how to work together, have understanding, and be responsible. At Frost Academy, the Ice Age Avengers' history grew.

The Ice Age Avengers and the people who came after them made sure that the once-unbeatable land kept doing well. As the icebergs melted, the animals did better. Frostholm was used as an example of how to protect the environment. Now that they were older and smarter, the Ice Age Avengers knew that their time protecting Frostholm was coming to an end. They taught the next generation how important it was to protect the icy environment. The young guards wanted to continue what their heroes had done. The animals they helped never forgot about the Ice Age Avengers. Their bravery and unity inspired the people who came after them to fight for what they believed in and protect their home country.
