Cartoon comics gay

Since this is a collections of cartoons from &#;Christopher Street Magazine&#;, I speculate we should know a little about the magazine.

Wikipedia© has article on the magazine from which we have:

Christopher Street was a gay-orientedmagazine published in New York City, New York. Known both for its intense discussion of issues within the gay community and its satire of anti-gay criticism, it was one of the two most-widely read gay-issues publications in the United States.^[1]^[2] Christopher Street covered politics and culture and its aim was to become a gay New Yorker. ^[3] The magazine featured original fiction from such notable authors as Andrew Holleran as well as emerging recent gay writers.
