Is there any chance that this will actually be good?

>>91426481
Depends if they can go more than 3 pages without some variation of "as a gay mutant".

Unlikely

>>91426481
No way in hell.

>>91426481
Speaking of, is the preview meant to be out this week? I think most of the Resurrxion ones come out a month beforehand.

>>91426481
>Bobby gets 3 love interests running away on him because they wanted someone else throughout decades of publication.
>Bobby never gets the respect he deserves.
>Now they want to experiment on the idea of him being gay.

Iceman has to be one of most shafted X-Men OGs.

>>91426854
>>91426481
This. I think there IS a good story to be told about a self hating closeted man. Not sure Marvel is capable of it.

>>91426971
>Iceman has to be one of most shafted X-Men
too easy.

>>91426481
>ice gaylord?
minimum chances

If there are no horrible ice puns this book is trash.

>>91426481
no way fag

>>91426854
Please. Issue 1's preview shows him on a dating website and issue 2 has him teaming up with Kitty so he can learn how to talk to guys. This is gonna be full on gay Iceman

>>91426481

Absolute Zero.

>>91426481
>Everyone on the cover is drawn overly feminine

They're really pushing this Gay Iceman meme, huh?

>>91426481

Nah.

>>91426481
If they needed to push a gay mutant, why not use Northstar?

>>91426481
They will focus on one aspect of Bobby's character and one aspect alone: the fact that he's now gay.

>>91429952
because fuck you that's why

>>91429952
They wouldn't get as many headlines if they actually used established gay mutants.

It's not that they care about diversity, they just want headlines.

What I don't understand is why is CURRENT, adult Bobby gay now? I think it would have not only been fine but a window for great storytelling and character study if the YOUNG Bobby goes gay and adult Bobby is like "Uhh cool man, but I kinda' like bangin' chicks."

you could do a story that is a look into how a lot of our sexuality is shaped by our lives and experiences not just genetically built into us.

Hydra Cap should have made that clear to everyone.

>>91430272
Jean Grey gave him the low down

>teaming up with Kitty so he can learn how to talk to guys.

Why Kitty? Seems like there would be better people to teach him how to be gay.

>>91426481

Xiceman is my favorite X-man

>>91430297
I actually think the Hydra Cap storyline turned out good, but that's despite of Marvel.

I wish they gave Daken an ongoing instead of this Iceman shit, that could've been fun if done well.

>>91429952
Because Northstar is gay, duh.

>>91430272

>you could do a story that is a look into how a lot of our sexuality is shaped by our lives and experiences not just genetically built into us.

Marvel would never have the balls to do this, it goes against the tumblr agenda.

>>91429952
Because Northstar is literally nobody's favorite hero and would never sell a solo series.

>>91430480
In what way is that different than Iceman?

>>91426481
>Comes out
>Almost immediately switches to a costume with short sleeves and bike shorts

How the fuck is this allowed?

>>91430598
At least he's not dressed as a cowboy with assless chaps.

>>91430598

Well, he used to just wear a matching ice speedo, so maybe this is less gay.

>>91430369
I want a book where Iceman, Daken and Shatterstar go full slut and try to seduce the same guy

Hercules ends up banging them all

>>91426481
I wish you could hear how loud I'm laughing. If you're anywhere within the same continent as me, you should be able to hear a feint chuckle.

>>91430598
Could be worst.

>>91430713
Well if he's that willing to let random people see his dick through poorly concealing clothes he needs no help picking up guys.

>>91430272
Or even if he had just been bi. That would've been an interesting story line, adult Bobby being forced to deal with the fact that he repressed a part of himself, but WITHOUT throwing away all of his straight relationships

The book will be full of beefcake and cute boys, so yes. It will be critically acclaimed by the gay community and horny girls everywhere.

10 bucks says the first issue starts with him taking a steamy shower.

>>91430576
Iceman's been around longer, so Marvel can lean on his long history without actually respecting it

>>91430713
Man why didn't Hopeless write Bobby like this in All New?

Instead he immediately got tied down to an Inhuman mind fucker and abandoned his people during a race war

>>91431336
If that's the route they go it could be an OK book. It sounds more like it's going to go down the woe is me, manly tears, coming out part of being gay. That's less fun.

>>91426481
The very concept of the book (the adventures of Iceman, Gay Mutant Extraordinaire) is shitty on its own considering Iceman isn't gay so no.

>>91431336
So a shittier version of Orlando's Midnighter?

>>91431568
And now we're stuck with his Inhuman boytoy

>>91428958

That's ice cold, man.

>>91435119
That's the young one. The solo is the older Iceman

>>91435119
>>91435228
One good thing about this book will be that at least Romeo cancer will all be in X-Men Blue.

>>91426481

Sinister looks seductive on the cover, Magneto has pouty lips, this is going to be softcore homo for confused teens.

>>91431336
Yeah all I really want out of this book is hot dudes. Just a shame it's not about Angel instead.

>>91430369

Homicidal, Homosexual, Sociopathic, Seductive Not-Wolverine. I would buy that.

>>91431325

Or have kid Bobby gay and adult Bobby straight, that would be a worthwhile read.

It will be awful, but it will get amazing reviews I bet.

Why didn't they make Beast gay and have him save Wonder Man

They did, remember the big gay marriage issue in Astonishing X-Men? And how he didn't appear in a single thing after Liu's run ended except as a background character in Uncanny #600?

>>91430344
>I'm the only lesbian at this school
The only teen one, yeah

>>91436157
Tell you the same thing I tell guys who watch Scarjo 'cause SHE'S HOT
Watch porn. Don't ruin a story so you can get off
