Can anyone who doesn't read comics name Captain America's love interest?

After how long the films take, you don't think someone can name a love interest for Captain America?

And there are plenty of cool gay comic characters.

But I wish people would talk about characters they like instead of this "gay" thing.

I think Midnighter is awesome, he's a fun over the top badass. Mystique is a great villain, Constantine is a really neat character with the con artist and detective kinda traits.

But I don't like them for being LGBT, that shouldn't change anyone's opinion on a character and I really hope the focus is on them being good rather than putting in a character who is gay simply to have a gay character.

Sometimes I wonder how close Peter and Harry were.

Kidding.

They could make Miles gay.

Originally Bendis seemed to be hinting at that.

Although I think that he thought the gay Black Hispanic seems to be too many traits thrown on top of each other, especially when the Hispanic stuff is barely touched on anyway.

I'm tired of changing established characters just for the sake of it. Create a new hero make him gay who cares tbh

You should probably stop reading comics then

There are plenty of original characters who are gay. Problem is many of them don't leave an impact.

There are definitely enough impactful ones.

I just mentioned my favorite and when you compare them to some other stuff...

Since being relaunched as Captain Marvel, she has not been able to sustain a comic as long as Midnighter (despite being a limited series typically)

Constantine has had numerous appearances and had a 300 issue comic run. He's pretty popular among people who know him.

Other characters like Loki and Mystique are very well known. It's just they haven't really gone into those aspects yet.

Yes there are. Honestly I think it's time for Alpha Flight (and by extension Northstar) to show up in a movie.

Maybe he should make his own franchise

Sounds trash
