GLAAD Awards Nominate Angela, Harley Quinn, Lumberjanes, Midnghter And The Wicked + The Divine Nominated

thewickedthedivine_1_BThe GLAAD Media Awards "recognize and honor media for their fair, accurate and inclusive representations of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community and the issues that affect their lives."

They have often awarded and rewarded comic books for this. However, they have been accused of leaning towards the most mainstream popular rather than what critics may see as the best examples.

This year's list is a lot more, well, diverse.

Harley Quinn, by Amanda Conner, Jimmy Palmiotti, Chad Hardin, John Timms, Jed Dougherty from DC Comics
