Rainbow Revolution

Rainbow Revolution (2016–2018) from Tokyopop (de) is an eight-issue series that follows a group of queer teens navigating love, identity, and self-discovery in a vibrant, slightly fantastical version of Berlin. Created by a team of German artists and writers, the comic stands out for its joyful, unapologetic celebration of LGBTQ+ lives and its stylish, manga-influenced artwork. It matters as a landmark European indie comic that brought authentic, diverse queer stories to a younger audience during a period of growing mainstream visibility.
