THE OSTRACIZED NOW HOLD HUMANITY’S FATE.

THE QUEEN'S HEROES

For generations, the Reptilians have secretly waged war against humanity, exploiting the divisions that already exist among us while preparing to reclaim a world they believe belongs to them.

Now, as their plan enters its final stage, six heroes who happen to identify as queer discover extraordinary abilities—and find themselves standing between humanity and an enemy it never knew existed.

But after generations of being rejected, attacked, and fought to be erased, they must decide:

Is humanity worth saving?

Is Humanity Worth Saving?

The Queen's Heroes began long before its first chapter. This special edition explores the experiences, questions, and convictions that shaped the universe over twenty-five years. Part personal reflection, part cultural commentary, and part origin story, it offers a deeper look at the real-world journey behind the fiction. Before readers discover the story, this special edition invites them to explore the ideas that inspired it.

Antes de que hubiera un universo

Había un cuaderno.

Fernando fue una vez un niño que llenaba cuadernos con historias y buscaba héroes que se parecieran a él. Al crecer como una persona queer y latina, rara vez se veía a sí mismo en el centro de los mundos que amaba.

Así que le hizo una promesa a su yo más joven: un día, él mismo crearía ese universo.

Durante más de dos décadas, a través de sacrificios e innumerables razones para rendirse, esa promesa perduró. Hoy, The Queen's Heroes existe porque un niño se negó a abandonar un sueño.

Lo que comenzó en un cuaderno se convirtió en un universo construido para recordar a cualquiera que alguna vez se haya sentido invisible que también puede ser el héroe.

These are some of the projects currently scheduled for release. The top box contains the Standard Graphic Novel and Novel Adaptation. The red box represents the Games Collection, featuring five games and a puzzle, all currently in production and planned for release later this year. As for the black box... that's a story for another day. A project I have wanted to create for years, and one that remains largely unexplored.

Sister Roma

When I first started writing the comic book while living in San Francisco, Sister Roma was an inspiration of what true heroes are.

Redmond Pride

When Waiyen and I moved to Redmond, Washington, we were surprised by how welcoming and queer-friendly such a small city could be. We often talked about how amazing it would be to have a Pride celebration there. Then one day, we saw a sign from a local group trying to organize the city's first Pride event. We immediately reached out and offered to help in any way we could—whether it was building the website, developing the brand, volunteering our time, or contributing financially where possible. The first Pride was a tremendous success, and we're proud to see it continue year after year. It was also at that first Pride that we met our filmmaker, Gabriel, who would later become part of the journey of bringing The Queen's Heroes to life.

notes...

When I first started writing The Queen's Heroes, it began with ideas I had been carrying in the back of my mind for decades. I started putting them on paper, organizing them, looking at them from the outside, and making sure every piece connected. What seemed like separate thoughts, themes, and characters slowly became part of a much larger story. The Queen's Heroes was never meant to be just one book. It is the first title, the first series, and the foundation of a much larger cinematic universe. Over the years, I have written concepts, stories, and outlines for more than twenty interconnected series that exist within this universe. Every project, every character, and every storyline connects to a bigger picture. This graphic novel is the first step in bringing that vision to life.

When I was 16 years old, I envisioned building a queer entertainment company. Back then, I called it Kraven Studios. I could see it so clearly: stories, comics, films, games, and a universe of characters that people like me could finally see themselves in. That vision never left me. No matter where life took me, no matter how many setbacks, sacrifices, or years passed, that dream stayed alive. Today, that dream has evolved into Kraven Comics. What you're seeing now is not the beginning of the dream. It's the moment the dream finally becomes real.

I remember how nervous I was before the news crew arrived to film the interview.

Kraven Magazine

This was me working at Gay Days in Orlando, Florida. I think it was around 2015, though I honestly can't remember the exact year. I spent hours at that table, and almost nobody stopped. Not even the free alcohol was enough to get people interested. But that never discouraged me. I've never viewed failure as failure. To me, it's data. It's learning. It's evolution. Every setback teaches you something. Every rejection shows you what can be improved. Every mistake gets you one step closer to success. Learning to build something is a lot like learning to walk. You fall over and over again until one day you're running. The only true failure is giving up.

First Con

Looking back, I think I was overconfident. I spent a lot of money to attend my first convention as an exhibitor. At the time, we didn't have a solid story. We didn't have a finished universe. We barely had a project at all. What we had was an idea. An idea that our community deserved better representation. An idea that LGBTQ+ people deserved to see themselves as heroes, not side characters. That convention felt like a defining moment. It would determine whether I continued pursuing this dream or walked away from it. But then something unexpected happened... And that moment changed the course of this project forever. You can read the full story in the magazine.

Sending packages

One of the greatest joys of this journey has always been fulfilling orders. Carefully packing each book, preparing each package, and sending it out into the world knowing it is about to reach someone new. Someone who has chosen to open their life to a universe I created. A universe where they are seen. Where they are valued. Where people like them are not side characters, but heroes. A world where the fate of humanity rests in their hands. Every order reminds me that these stories are no longer just mine. They belong to the people who connect with them, find themselves in them, and carry them forward.

So nice to go out to outdoors event and meet new fans...

This is one of the reason while i kept gping...

Before it became The Queen's Heroes, the project was known as Class6. By the time I reached Episode 10, I made the difficult decision to stop everything and start over. I rewrote the entire story, cutting nearly 70% of the material and applying everything I had learned over the previous twenty years.

I believe this was Emerald City Comic Con in Seattle. Those banners were supposed to help sell the books, but somehow people became more interested in buying the banners themselves. It happened so often that I started joking they were outperforming the books. To be fair, the artwork looked incredible at that size, and I completely understood why people wanted to take them home.
