Hi Tom -- there is an old maxim for writers that states we should show, don't tell. You guys have -told- us Bobby Drake is Gay. When and how will Marvel -show- us how gay Bobby really is? How gay do you think he has to be to satisfy the readers who believe Bobby is really gay and not merely "publicity gay"? Do you think there will be backlash if he is not "gay enough"?

We’ve put out only a single issue in which this has been a topic so far. i think it’s way early for me to be worried about whether people think Iceman is Gay enough.

Don’t worry dude iceman has been pretty obviously gay for many issues.

Been writing the slash for 12 years, it’s been obvious for TWELVE YEARS (at least.)
