Didn’t imply that at all.
Just that we don’t have to make everything (Spiderman) gay.

How is Peter Parker being gay "everything"?

:eyes: When 99% of onscreen representation is heterosexual comments like that are laughable. :laugh:

Tell me, how many LGBT characters are there in the MCU? I find the whole 'stop making everything gay' argument silly when you consider that there are no openly LGBT characters in the MCU. Valkyrie was meant to be but since they removed all mention of it then she doesn't really count.

Ant. 30-06-2019 09:00 PM

First they made Captain marvel a woman and NOW they want to make Spiderman gay?!?!!

Political correctness gone mad, busy pandering to snowflakes I see :idc:

There's only that one character in Endgame and I think that's it.

Captain Marvel is female in the comics.

I'm aware

But people still complain that 'he' was turned into a woman and that they're pandering

Liam- 30-06-2019 09:07 PM

Tom probably just wants an excuse to get off with Jake Gyllenhaal

They're gonna introduce some more LGBT characters in phase 4 apparently.

Yeah, I've heard there's gonna be a gay hero in Eternals and if Young Avengers ends up being a thing then they could have two as well.

Considering the runaway successes of both Captain Marvel and Black Panther, I'm surprised they haven't fast tracked a film with an LGBT hero yet.

Who would they be?
Ironically I really like DC Comics and not the movies, but I love the MCU movies and I'm neither here nor there on the Marvel Comics.

I have no clue about the Eternals since I'm not familiar with them but with the YA, it'd be Hulkling and Wiccan.

I'd love to see the Young Avengers and especially Wiccan and Hulkling. I loved reading their comics.

Liam- 30-06-2019 09:45 PM

I’m not like, massively up to speed with all things Marvel, but wtf is a Hulkling?

Tony Montana 30-06-2019 09:46 PM

Since the X-Men are being introduced to MCU, I can see Iceman being gay if they begin their franchise with the original X-Men team.

His younger self came out in All-New X-Men #40 in 2015. Dezzy, have you read that comic?

I'm guessing it's a "Hulk Jr" - most of the Teen Titans and Young Justice from DC are young versions of the main heroes, so it's probably the same over at Marvel.

I've not heard of or come across those characters, but cool!:)

I know Bobby Drake aka Iceman is gay too, from the X-Men.

Tony Montana 30-06-2019 09:49 PM

Hulkling is a Skrull- Kree hybrid. His character is patterned on the Hulk.

He's a skrull that idolises the Hulk if I remember right so he imitates Hulk's powers. He's in a relationship with Wiccan (who, in the comics, is Scarlet Witch's son) and they're both pretty popular with a lot of readers.
