Gay superhero comic book Spandex has been nominated for an Eagle Award.

The comic book revolves around the Spandex team, which is led by Liberty, the world's first ->-bleeped-<- superhero. The remaining 6 team members – Glitter, Prowler, Diva, Indigo, Butch and Neon – are gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender.

Spandex, the creation of illustrator Martin Eden, debuted last November and is nominated in the Best British Color Comic Book category.
