Wow. Like, it's not perfect, but I really like it a lot. It's not as diverse as advertised maybe… but what it does is tell the stories of 7 real queer trans guys (at least that's how it's framed, not sure if they all identify that way) in beautifully detailed comics that aren't too short so they don't stay too superficial and trope-y, but not too long either.

It's mostly focused on trans biographies / "origin stories" (instead of random anecdotes starring trans guys) and yes, there is a lot of pain and conflict and violence. At the same time, everyone is cute and the drawings are cute and it all feels so nice and fluffy? I really grew to like many of the characters (who are all based on real people, omg is this weird).

The language felt a bit out of place sometimes ("genetic guys", "male bodies" - consciously normative or just outdated from my perspective?) and it was awkward not to know if those are the words that were used in the interviews, or the words that Edwards chose.

Oh, and that last story about 2 people is soooo confusing, it took so long to realize that the perspective switches, and even then it was a bit complicated to follow, so… just be warned ^^; ( )

Fun and fascinating reading. When I was coming out in the late ‘90s, there was barely an awareness of FTMs (females transitioning to males) and, naturally, transgendered men were assumed to be straight. In Transposes, Dylan Edwards’ sheds light on the lives of gay FTMs, the transmen who are sexually oriented towards men post-transition. He tells their stories with humor, poignancy and insight. What’s more, he shows us their stories. An experienced cartoonist and talented artist, Dylan draws an accurate picture of the lives and bodies of transmen as they come out, discover themselves and learn to navigate the world as gay and transgendered men.

I bought a hardcopy, but I was able to read part of this on iTunes and something about it being a graphic novel makes it look great in digital format. Highly recommend in either medium. ( )

Groundbreaking and very interesting, this graphic book compiles several interviews with different FTM trans men. The art is a little awkward but I can definitely see Dylan developing as an artist. I'm looking forward to seeing what else he makes in the future. ( )
