Out this week: Freaks’ Squeele Vols. 1-2 (Magnetic, $24.99 each):  Florent Maudoux’s long-running European fantasy series, which was recently crowdfunded by Magnetic Press, arrives in comic shops, introducing readers to a university that trains aspiring superheroes. Mixing superhero tropes and school-life comedy, the first two volumes follow Chance, Shadow and Xiong Mao as they navigate classes and their increasingly dangerous assignments.

Male empowerment in a french cómic called Freaks Squeele. It’s just a random scene but I thought it might be something that could interest you. In terms of clothes, this comic is a mixed bag, and has some cool half-naked male suits.

So a quick search into how women in Freaks Squeele look didn’t defy much of “sexy fantasy lady” expectations (though their facial expession range is quite sweet).

So I do believe it’s a mixed bag.

Still nice to see some very empowered male costume in there, including a prominent codpiece.
