🐱 Marvel Raises Doubts on Spider-Man’s Sexuality with Shocking Cover

https://insidethemagic.net/2022/04/marvel-pride-black-cat-spider-man-bisexual-cover-ct1/

Pride Month is nearly upon comic book fans. And while Marvel fans have been left disappointed compared to some of the offerings from DC Comics, the announcements are still coming. Marvel has announced a series of comic book runs and variant covers featuring LGBTQ+ characters and queer creators from the Marvel Universe. And one recent announcement had some Marvel fans confused as to whether Peter Parker/Spider-Man might be bisexual.

Peter Parker/Spider-Man has been brought to live-action three times, played by Tom Holland, Andrew Garfield, and Tobey Maguire. Peter Parker’s onscreen romances include Mary Jane Watson (Kristen Dunst), Gwen Stacy (Emma Stone), and Michelle Jones (Zendaya). Each character was based on one of Peter Parker’s comic book relationships.

However, one of his primary love interests that he has not interacted with much yet on the big screen is Felicia Hardy/Black Cat. Felicity Jones brought Black Cat to live-action in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (2014) with Andrew Garfield, but she was not given much to do in the film, which was poorly received y fans. Luckily, Garfield was able to reprise his variant of Spider-Man in Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021).

Black Cat first appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man #194 (1979) by Marv Wolfman and Keith Pollard. Felicia Hardy has a complicated romantic history with Spider-Man and has finally been confirmed as bisexual. That is why she got her very own Pride Variant Cover. But laying beside her was Peter Parker, which some Marvel fans took to mean that their favorite web-crawler was also coming out of the closet.

Questions quickly began pouring in under Marvel Comics’ official announcement of the cover, drawn by Jen Bartel, on Twitter. One user asked:

“spiderman is gay?”

To which other users jokingly responded with

“Yes, he’s in a relationship with Johnny storm and sometimes Deadpool also.”

Peter Parker was only included as Black Cat’s love interest on the variant cover of Marvel Voices: Pride #1 written by Charlie Jane Anders, Christopher Cantwell, Andrew Wheeler, Alyssa Wong, Grace Freud, Ira Madison III, and Danny Lore. However, many Marvel fans have long suspected Peter could be secretly bisexual, and they jumped on the chance to point out other male Marvel superheroes he could have been in a relationship with.

Johnny Storm/Human Torch of the Fantastic Four has long been one of Spider-Man’s best friends. Some fans have pointed out they can be pretty flirty with each other, including the Human Torch inviting Peter over to watch a very special DVD with him in Amazing Spider-Man Digital #17 (2009) by Brian Reed.

Wade Wilson/Deadpool has never been shy about being attracted to both Peter Parker and Spider-Man (when he does not know they are the same person). The Merc with a Mouth is pansexual and actually has a “daughter” with Peter named Itsy Bitsy, who is a genetic combination introduced in Spider-Man/Deadpool #8 (2016) by Joe Kelly.

And in Moon Knight #4 (2019) by Brian Michael Bendis, Peter admitted having dated Marc Spector/Steven Grant/Moon Knight “a little bit.” It is not clear if he was joking, but Marvel has been poking around the idea of Peter Parker being bisexual for a while. But for now, he is still officially straight.

What if spider man is not really gay and is being forced into this? What if spider man is actually being raped by a man?

Given its comics, I think you can say something about being under the influence of someone via mind control and nobody will bat an eye.

And you wonder why Manga is crushing Mainstream comics.

I think the bigger wonder is how the MCU ( which started well before Conicsgate) didn’t lead to massive sales and a revitalizing of the American comics industry.

I can answer this

It's mostly because Marvel comics have had such a long history that it's hard to just jump into it because everything going on was so drastically different from anything anyone was expecting from their experience with films. And because they were so beholden to their bloated universe, they would try to revert to the status quo but in such stupid ways it would turn people off.

"Oh, Spider-Man is single again just like in the movies? Wait...it's because he made a deal with the devil to save Aunt Mays life after she got shot, and in a world that features futuristic iron man suits, the fantastic four, mutants that can heal on touch and the sorcerer supreme Dr. Strange nobody could possibly save her?"

Even the Ultimate Universe was played out by that point, and they couldn't just create a dedicated MCU line of comics because then they might just be poaching stories for the films.

I mean, that and fucking 5+ dollars for 20 page floppies with questionable art.

Black Cat, Carol Danvers before the trannification, Silver Sable made a move on him one time, and I think the rest are either too deep in there or meh for me.

Don't forget Silk, the Asian Spidergirl who was introduced specifically to ride Peter's dick. Like, she was literally genetically lusting for him and he felt the same way towards her.

Peter has a harem of hos.

Spoiler

Miles should be bi. There are plenty of gay, white male superheroes. The LGBT BIPOC community needs more representation.

Intersectionality is so important to both the BIPOC and LGBT communities. Marvel needs to seize the opportunity and let Miles be bisexual. If a twinky "Superman" can be gay, then so can a twinky "Spiderman."

It would unironically help him be something other than Peter, but not white.

For a nerdy guy, Peter Parker gets laid like tile more often than not.

Bitches love Spider-Man

If Twits weren't a slave people they would screeching exactly this.

Spider-Man died with Spider-Man 3. Eat shit faggots.

The losers who write Marvel think all relationships are as melodramatic as their's.

 

[Toolbox]

Another comic to go in another landfill after sitting on a shelf for years. What is left of the comic industry in the US especially, exactly?

 

[Mega Man II Intro - GB]

i mean, there was this one scene but it's cap being kind of a dick in a non-sexual way a fujo would consider to be sexual

that artist makes everyone look like homos (and the women look like trannies)

Peter has a harem of hos.

Who's the blonde that's not Gwen or Spider-Gwen? A different Gwen? For a dead chick she sure comes around a lot.

Gwenpool, I think.

Is this some kind of inside joke about Hollywood, the youngest is in front of two grizzled Jews, he looks nervous with his hands at crotch level of the unwashed fucks behind him while they mug at the camera:

Pride Month is nearly upon

Nearly upon? Did the whole fucking month of May just disappear while I was napping or what? There is a full damn 31 days month between us and Pride... calm your tits.

But laying beside her was Peter Parker, which some Marvel fans took to mean that their favorite web-crawler was also coming out of the closet.

The secondary character of a comic book is bisexual and having the main character next to her is making "fans" ask if he's bisexual?

What? Are these people really autistic? Is there some autism epidemic? And this is the cover:

It's OBVIOUS by looking at the composition that they are implying that SHE is the bisexual because there is a man and a woman next to her. She's the focus of the cover. Having sex with someone who is bisexual doesn't make YOU the bisexual, stupid fuckers.

Wait, spiderman fucked some girl who experimented with some other chick so now he's gay as well because bi-ness is seemingly an STD?

Everyone involved with comics stopped maturing mentally at 14 years old.

Just how many months do leftists have dedicated to being insufferable now?

Just how many months do leftists have dedicated to being insufferable now?

All of them; they can't even take stuff like Christmas, Easter, or Thanksgiving off either... And Father's Day may as well be a declaration of war.
