With Sara Century and Connor Goldsmith!

There is another character in this series named Marge.

(2020).

Gay and lesbian characters are becoming increasingly visible in the comic book universe. She reads Bobby’s mind and presents him with everything he has supposedly wanted.

But wait! We were invisible and the most we could rely on in mainstream cape comics was subtext (Northstar, Mystique), or fan readings/theories on characters who may or may not be gay.

This was released in 1984, and was coming out nearly concurrently to The New Defenders, written by Peter B Gillis. That is not the relevant point for the purpose of this analysis though, it is the fact that this is where the queer readings began, and fed into the actual, intentional queer subtext that fundamentally influenced the character in the 90s onwards.

What he doesn’t know…in classic comic book fashion…Marge is actually a deity, the daughter of the god of Oblivion; the omnipotent being who resides in a limbo-like realm, between life and death.

He succeeds and the message of the story at the end is that Bobby’s parents may be more than meets the eye and maybe he shouldn’t judge them too harshly.

The plot line raised questions about the character's present-day self, who presented himself as heterosexual -- until now. How did this happen?
