Speaking of Marvel comics....
Whoopi Goldberg announced on The View today that JP is going to propose to Kyle in tomorrow's issue of Astonishing X-Men and that the two will be wed in June's issue.
So Marvel is going to have their first official on-panel gay marriage. :D
HEY MARVEL COMICS YOU KNOW WHAT? Since you're going all-out to ride this wave of gay marriage publicity and you've got this awesome Avengers fanbase just dying to throw money at you right now... You know what you should do?
You should make a Young Avengers cartoon. That's what you should do. And I know that I just said the same thing yesterday, but come on! Young Avengers features one of the best portrayals of gay teen relationship in either Marvel or DC canon. It would be an enormous and important step in the right direction if Wiccan and Hulkling could star in a mainstream cartoon series.
Having a gay marriage in the official Marvel comics canon is an awesome and amazing thing, no doubt about it. Here's hoping that someday (possibly soon?) Marvel is ready to take the next step and include a gay relationship in one of their cartoon shows.
No but seriously you guys Young Avengers is such perfect, perfect material for a cartoon adaptation. Absolutely perfect.

I know, right?
JP didn't even come out of the closet until 1992, even though John Bryne (who created the character in 1979) said that he was always intended to be gay, although editorial mandate meant that he could never actually say so explicitly, just slip hints past the censors.
I do have a dreamwidth unique account, which is under my typical userid of "imorca."
Oh, duh. That explains why you haven't been able to see my locked entries. I don't have your unique DW account friended.
Er, sorry about the confusion. It should be fixed now!

And that is all I have to say on the subject.
