Kay Honda
A writer, production coordinator, and media analyst who has contributed to ComicsVerse and co-wrote the anthology story 'Choice' in All We Ever Wanted.
Kay Honda didn’t wait for permission to find her voice in comics—she built it from the ground up, one interview, one podcast episode, one incisive review at a time. Starting as an intern at ComicsVerse, she clawed her way to Production Coordinator, where she wrangled contributors, hosted deep-dive podcasts, and produced sharp analysis that spanned everything from mainstream superhero blockbusters to the scrappiest indie gems. Her coverage of minority and LGBTQ representation in superhero comics became essential listening for anyone paying attention to where the medium was heading.
Honda channeled that passion for inclusive storytelling into “Choice,” her contribution to the All We Ever Wanted anthology. Illustrated by Liana Kangas with colors by Gab Contreras, the story wrestles with agency, identity, and the quiet revolution of choosing your own path in a world that demands conformity. It’s a story about the futures we build when we refuse to let others write our narratives.
Honda’s influence extends well beyond the page. As a reviewer for ComicBookRoundUp, she’s wielded her critical eye across titles like Catwoman, Descender, and Clean Room. At Flame Con, she’s taken the stage for panels including “How Comics Saved My Life” and “Celebrating Minority and LGBTQ Superheroes”—proving that the comics community isn’t just something she covers, it’s something she actively transforms.
Perfect for fans of Sina Grace and his candid explorations of identity in comics, or anyone who believes the best criticism is an act of love.
