funniest thing about owen hunt having multiple girlfriends/wives who are also attracted to women is that he has no bi wife energy at all. he’s kind of got slur energy.
Nebula, World Fantasy, and Locus-award winner Alyssa Wong and fan-favorite artist Stephen Byrne reunite the Young Avengers in a story guaranteed to please fans new and old! Byrne will also depict the team in one of the issue’s variant covers.
“YOUNG AVENGERS is one of my cornerstone comics: fun, romantic, hilarious, ambitious, queer, and utterly buck wild. ‘All My Exes In the Nexus’ is a love letter to the queer chaos, camaraderie, and joy that the Young Avengers embody. (And it’s a Loki story, because of course it is),” Wong teased.
“I couldn’t be more excited to work on the Young Avengers story for MARVEL’S VOICES: PRIDE. The Gillen/McKelvie run was one of my earliest encounters with queer representation in comics and it is an exciting honor to be drawing them now,” Byrne added.
I won‘t lie, after the infinity comic, seeing Teddy unhappy like this in combination with a story called “All my exes in the nexus” makes me very nervous!

I’m not even tagging this but boy…. how quickly fandom forgets
Yeah and how willing Billy was able to do it, he didn’t even hesitate and actively tried I believe twice (?) (Don’t quote me on the number)
Yup! it was twice.
And I just can’t with all these posts going on about how they can’t wait to see A Loki in Young Avengers, and I’m just like “Did we read the same comic?”
Which is made even worse by people thinking Billy and Loki would have made a better couple.
Loki actively tried to bring Billy to the edge of insanity. He made him doubt the most meaningful connection in his life (his relationship with Teddy), the control over his powers and wanted him to kill himself.
Conceptually, this is a good story and I quite like the idea of Loki being as devious as he is, but Billy has been through so much already. I don’t want anything similar in Young Avengers. It would be nice to give him a break. Especially after his relationship to Teddy was heavily weakened in the Infinity comic imo.
IF YOU THINK TEDDY (KAPLAN-)ALTMAN IS BI, GET OFF MY PAGE AND UNFOLLOW ME!
Some characters, even ones you might consider attractive, are gay. Stop changing them! Teddy and Billy are gay, just as much as Tommy and David are bi, or how America is lesbian. I‘m tired of works and discourses where people try to actively change/fight characters‘ sexual identities.
This is still homophobia. These are minority characters that mean the world to people around the world belonging to that minority. Invalidating a minority character is invalidating the minority in real life. TEDDY AND BILLY ARE GAY.
This comic officially needs a new title. How do you forget to include Magneto in a comic called TRIAL OF MAGNETO! He legit appears in like two panels.
Why the hell does Williams think that Billy and Tommy spent their “Entire lives” defending Wanda. They didn’t even know she was their mother for most of their life. They’re like in their twenties in comic book world. They didn’t even know shew was their mom until they were sixteen. And didn’t meet her (For Tommy) until Children’s Crusade. Or met her briefly (Billy).
IF this ends up being that future Wanda killed past Wanda to change her destiny or what not, I am going to be so pissed, because that’s going to be the world’s lamest ending.
So this whole thing is the three Wanda’s. Past Present and Future. Oh wow. That’s so deep and clever.
THis entire comic is a wasted opportunity.
AND WHY THE HELL WERE BILLY AND TOMMY YELLING AT WANDA? It was completely unnecessary, especially when she hasn’t had time to process the info dump she got from the Telepaths with no common sense.
What really set me off isn’t the stupid decision to give Billy red powers, the awful storytelling, or the way they try to shoehorn a connection between Wanda and the twins, but how they screamed at here. It was brutal to see. You‘re telling ME the kids who saved and defended Wanda in the Children‘s Crusade would go and scream at her when she‘s literally having a breakdown and have this abuse be her motivation?
Tommy would never. But Billy???? no possible way would Billy, the man who constantly doubts himself, who believes in everyone, who knows how bad your mental health can get, who knows how tricky powers are, ever, EVER scream at anyone, especially not his spiritual mom. Even after he realized what Loki was planning, he still treated him with respect and treated him as a friend.
WHEN YOU WRITE A FREAKING COMIC READ A FEW FREAKING COMICS BEFOREHAND! IT‘S THE SAME WITH THE INFINITY COMIC. YOU ARE WRITING ESTABLISHED CHARACTERS. YOU GET PAID TO DO THAT! YOU CANNOT JUST CHANGE THEM HOW YOU SEE FIT. IT‘S YOUR FREAKING JOB!
Not me having ‘Agatha All Along’ as my most played song this year, just to find out in Hulkling & Wiccan: Infinity that she’s a homophobic and racist hag!
How Wiccan became friends with Northstar and Kyle Jinadu
Wiccan and Hulkling invited Northstar (Jean-Paul Beaubier), Kyle Jinadu and Iceman (Bobby Drake) to have dinner with them in space. How Wiccan came to know Northstar and Kyle is that he probably met the couple way back in Krakoaland during the Scarlet Witch incident.
I’ve recently rediscovered the joys of cross-hatching and what better way to practice than drawing my favourite superhero. Watch this space for more YA, because I have his husband nearly finished >w<
I drew this after Emperor Hulkling came out and I was high on the euphoria of Thinkfast canon!! And then I forgot to post it because I tried to be fancy and the colours took forever!
Poor Teddy, third-wheeled again. He and Billy have definitely never done this to any of their friends.
Look, I saw a tweet about Teddy in a crop top and it’s been living rent-free in my head for a good week. Also you can blame my wife for the galaxy print short shorts that Billy’s wearing, I love her and she’s a terrible influence
When I wake up in the night without you, my soul just cries out for you. I could wish for anything in any world, I could bend reality to all my whims, and when I wake up alone and scared…I only want you.
