Who do you headcanon as LGBT+?

[Crimz]

It's pride month, and this thread is only for a little bit of fun. So please no toxicity.

It's simple, which characters ( who aren't confirmed to be in canon) do you think of as LGBT+?

It can be for any reason from past interactions and writing, to just because they have a "vibe".

[I'm a Fish]

Angel for sure.

Hercules, because he actually is in Greek mythology and no one ever touches on that.

Kitty Pryde, Dannie Moonstar, Magik, Sunspot…maybe just all the G1 New Mutants…

[Mike_Murdock]

Less head canon and more authorial intent, I would go with Kitty Pryde, Ilyana Rasputin, and Rachel Summers.

More head canon but I would agree with Hercules.

Also, I know excessively performative heterosexuality seems to go all the way to the other side into homoeroticism, but I still feel Johnny Storm is bi.

[Charlie_1981]

Amora the enchantress, seriously symbol of love of any kind and just make her only interested on men, it has little sense.

[maxhilary]

Gambit and Johnny Storm are bi in my mind. Same with Kitty Pryde, Rachel Summers and Magik.

I think men or women are more potentially bi without coming to the expression of it. For example the lead singer of Green Day has asserted he is bi-sexual, ages ago, but says he has never had sex with a man and is loyally married.

I think that possibility has existed for many men or women, that they just choose to not be active sexually that way, but in their heart or mind feel the attraction, are curious, etc.

Having said that, I could see Johnny that way, I guess I would need to see more specifics. On a scale of bisexuality, to me, Johnny would appear to be 2 or3 with 10 being the highest.

Johnny's situation is just weird to me and it would make more sense if he was bi with some of the stuff that happens to him from time to time.

Like this:





I've never seen a character called out like this in a comic...

[Chocomancer]

I like to think that races/people born outside Earth are pan/bi because they don't know or have a concept of gender/sexual orientation...

Characters, other comments have already quoted such as Hercules and Johnny.

Lol. What issue was that?


I can say I can see Kate Bishop as Questioning.

I see Eye Boy as queer these last few issues.

Rachel, Magik, Kitty obviously, Betsy are pretty much confirmed for me.

Black Tom for males.

The way the comics are going, I might count most of the Eternals.

Yeah well, to me, that whole sequence feels like projection and wish fulfillment on the part of the writer.
For 30 some odd years, Johnny essentially had three committed relationships all with women (Crystal, Frankie, Alicia/Lyja).

Crystal and Frankie were both potential life partners for him, and Alicia/Lyja actually married him. In all three cases, Johnny was the one blindsided by the break ups.

It wasn't till much later that Johnny would be seen with the girlfriend of the week.

Its true.
The number of men who just don't admit their own bisexuality to their female spouse is..... A LOT.
Many gay and bisexual men are very aware that many straight-presenting married men exist who are secretly interested in men. Whether they've followed through in pursuing a physical expression of that interest is another thing entirely.

‘Bout time.

I don’t read much Guardians so this flew over my head.

[Fokken]

Hercules is confirmed, per the current Guardians of the Galaxy run.

It's not just Hercules. There are a number of gods and mythical characters in legends all across the world that make the list. Not sure when Marvel will fully integrate these character points into their Hercules adaptation, but I suspect it's only a matter of time.
