In fact, whenever the company has the chance to incorporate one of its many, many LGBT characters into a global blockbuster, it balks at the opportunity. This even means erasing scenes which reveal a queer character’s sexuality, as happened with Thor: Ragnarok‘s Valkyrie. Or, more likely, it can mean ignoring canon developed for years, sometimes even decades, in the pages of Marvel’s comic … Read more
