#marvel completely glossing over buckynat for the movies always Intrigues Me i love them in the comics

[logansgaar]

listen if Marvel continues their embracing gay characters streak (which I'm loving btw, Phastos, America, Valkyrie, Loki, Sylvie, Ayo, Aneka, Agatha, Billy, Tommy, Rio, Jennifer, Korg, Jeri, that guy from Ant Man, Nikki, hopefully my aroace queen Yelena and so on... give me more!!), I really hope they fully acknowledge Bucky's Arnie Roth origins and have Bucky come out as gay, I'm not expecting it but I have marginally more hope than I used to. I think it'll have a huge impact on a wider scope of fans, more so than newer character introductions because Bucky's been here, he's been here since Phase 1, he's not so easy for bigot fans to ignore after they've been worshipping the Winter Soldier as the epitome of their straight male power fantasy for the last 13 years

And they can't even say they "made him gay" because Bucky's literally had the same backstory as Arnie Roth since day one, more Arnie than any other Bucky Barnes variant across the comics. Bro's had the same dynamics Arnie has with female characters since the first movie, he acts the exact same with women as Arnie Roth does, yet has none of the same dynamics with women that 616 Bucky has, not a single one.

And Arnie Roth is the FIRST mainstream gay comic character in history. MCU Bucky is a composite of Arnie and 616 Bucky (I don't believe people who say Ultimates Bucky, that fucker was a press photographer the fuck? That's such a reach. A reach that's only being made so they don't have to admit Bucky's actually based on a gay man).

Made him gay?? Bitch he's been gay this whole time, which they'd know if they were a 'rEaL cOmIc BoOk FaN'
