I thought this was funny:




Like I said, good for Marvel. Nothing wrong with promoting tolerance.

I agree: who cares and it's a pathetic attempt to PC comics more in the name of being progressive.

But yeah, this is dumb. All weddings in comics are dumb. It's basically saying, we can't think of s#it to write at the moment. So let's pull a stunt like this to get peoples attention and sell comics just for the sake of selling comics.

Great, two donut punchers getting married. It might be cool if they start beating some people up in the middle of it all! Now that's what comics are about.

At least this is better than DC randomly turning one of their heroes gay.

@Just1Superguy- Moses was Jewish.

I am sorry, guess I am to old, or homophobic, or whatever, but this just sounds gay to me.

@tea I can just hear the teeth saying "I'm free!!!!" when leaving his mouth.


Btw, you sure you want Gusto as your DJ? He had a hard time doing his last wedding job.

Well if this is the new norm it should make any comics with the old norm worth allot more money. In 10 years my giant sized annual amazing spider-man #21 will be worth thousands, maybe millions because people will forget men and woman used to get married. I cannot believe the CCA approves of this and yet so many issues that dealt with drugs weren't approved. Now I guess we really know what they mean by x-men. I am expecting that Ace and Gary will get there own series now

Yo, who is the girl holding on to Wolveriene??

another comic for me to NOT buy.

@Just1Superguy - I am pointless. Much like bitching about Christian values being forced on me in regards to gay marraiges, and then referencing a non-Christian having two wives.

Because weddings in comics are a new thing right?

@blackandyellow thank you! I've been puzzling over that since this pic first came out,
I had a suspicion that it was kitty, it has to be her.

i don't have any problem with the fact it's a gay marriage, just the fact there are far better things to put in comics than anyone getting married,

even if it's a plot point that the wedding gets invaded by "the villain" because thats been done to death too!

plus marriage is an out dated institution that has no real relevance to modern day life. (should of thought about that before i tied the knot really :S)

gay mutatnts thats gotta be a tough road i guess... I feel like this isnt the kind of thing to put in comic books im not saying dont have gay characters but why do the fictiional characters need to get married.. i dont know who they are but you should be dating atleast 60 years before you get married in the comics lol...

A gay interracial marriage

wow.

Honestly I don't give a shit in real life if someone is gay or not. Shit like this just seems so forced down your throat.

@blackandyellow: i am canadian, and i am pretty sure if your country invaded, we simply have to hold out till winter, burn down the towns your traveling towards for shelter and we will be fine...

Any article featuring the 'gay' debate should be the only articles with dudes posting boob and bum pics. then all the rednecks can get distracted.

if anyone one is offended by my redneck comment, i really am sorry, i should be more polite and sensitive to your 'lifestyle' choice
