Continuing gay comics month on Panel Borders; in the first of two shows, Alex Fitch talks to one of the winners of last year’s Gay Press Grant – Tommy Roddy about his comic “Pride High” which is a hipper version of the “X-Men” that allows the gay characters of a super hero school take centre stage, while dealing with issues of oppression and mortal enemies.
