LGBT+ Marvel Characters Discussion

[AndersonHoran]

They just announced America Chavez in Dr Strange 2

[MasterOfMagnetism]

They keep announcing all these popular Young Avengers characters... except for two in particular. I'm getting impatient.

On a more positive note openly gay filmmaker Justin Simien is developing the new "Lando" series for Disney+ and I'm pretty confident there will be some representation in that series.

You’re willfully ignoring context. Aradia talked about Star-Lord joining their (hers and Mors’) union. For him to start referring to both his partners as ‘beautiful’ denotes something entirely different than me calling one of the homies ‘beautiful’. But for some reason, your read on it is that Aradia has become a trophy for the men. Which... considering comics are more often than not a Rorschach test, says a lot lmaoooo.

Why are you in an LGBTQ+ appreciation thread, trying to severely downplay the rep we get? It’s quite literally none of your business and it just seems to be to incite conflict.

Yeah, I don't get where in the issue Aradia is treated as a trophy. All Aradia and Mors do is invite Quill to their way of loving.

Justin Simien is gay? I've been following "Dear White People" since the movie and never knew.

Yep, Lionel is basically Justin's self-insert character.

Honestly mind-blown. First time I've come to this thread and y'all are already hitting me with the facts.

That is a interpretation, the relationship from beginning to end was very oe sided with Peter and the woman.

what rep? there isn't a sex scene or a kiss. if you think Marvel would let one of the mCU protagonists be bi to lose ntire markets? If they wanted this to be bi representation e news would hit comics and entertainment sites

This is a discussion page.

Guardians is full of LGBT, Ewing doesnt need to force Quill and kill the cnon to have nice representation.

Omg. Just stop. The guy is walking towards Quill, who then wraps his arm around him. There's no doubt what it's meant to be and your "interpretation" is fucking homophobia. Like yeah maybe Marvel won't be exploring Quill being interested in men, like how they were doing to Hercules until now, but it doesn't change the fact that the scene is very clear on what it's meant to be.

So would you say there was.........an orgy of evidence?

Mustn't feed the troll lest he climb out from beneath his cyber bridge and start throwing his feces.

Homophobia? from a queer person? The guy is there, but he far more removed from the scene than the woman. Saw nothing romantic on him embrace of Quill. t this point people want so much representation that they are willing to destroy cannon with nosense, ewing tis the leat selling run from the llast 20 years. Can't wait for this shit get canceled

Yeah, 'cause wanting a book to get cancelled for making a character queer is totally normal, non-homophobic behavior. Mods, please come take out the trash.

These are children books so trying to use on-panel f**king for proof of sexuality seems like bad faith.

They can kiss, sex can be shown on a PG-13 way.

I wnt good representation if Ewing had the intention to show Peter gay he is on the wrong. Respect canon and not do things to get praised by 5 people on twitter. It was a dumb decision from all the ways I can think about it, he undermined his own story to be called "woke". I want a good GOTG to read again, it has nothing to do with homophobia. People need to learn to read negative opinions. Ask the mods to remove me isnt cool at all.
If he was bi, this would be big news from Marvel. So no.

well Wikipedia wasted no time putting Starlord in the Bisexual fictional character and LGBT characters catergory.
