Super: Where is the LGBTQ Ms. Marvel?
Superheroes meant a fantastic deal to my sense of lgbtq+ identity when I was growing up. The men were rarely drawn as sex symbols, but their athleticism and close male friendships were as shut to homoeroticism as the culture allowed me. The presence of strange outsider heroes like Cloak and Dagger, the X-Men, and even DP7, combined with the fantasy of superhuman champions fighting on behalf of the weak and oppressed, made superheroes integral to my sense of self-worth when everything else conspired to relate me I was worthless.
I still ponder there's something very queer about superheroes; the flamboyant costumes, the drag identities, the familial super-teams with their confidential clubhouses. I also think that the queer subtext ought to be more evident in the text, and while I'm often told to look for queer stories elsewhere in comics, I don't want to be pushed out of the spaces that matter to me. LGBTQ people are everywhere. We should be seen, and recognized, everywhere.

Valkyrie is bisexual.
During Marvel Studio's Hall H panel at Comic-Con in , Tessa Thompson confirmed that her character, Valkyrie, will be openly queer in the upcoming film, "Thor: Adore and Thunder."
"As new king [of Asgard], she needs to find her queen," Thompson said.
In the comics' "The Fearless Defenders" series, Valkyrie is clearly double attraction and has a bond with the female anthropologist Annabelle Riggs.
Thus far, despite Thompson's efforts, Valkyrie's queerness hasn't been made transparent onscreen. "Thor: Ragnarok" filmmakers cut a scene that included a woman walking out of Valkyrie's bedroom, which would have made her sexuality more explicit.
"In the canon, yeah, she is bisexual," Thompson told Variety. "You see her with both women and men, so that was my intention in playing her."

We’ve got female led films like Captain Marvel and the upcoming Black Widow solo prequel film.
