Gay-Coding and Magneto
I ponder one thing that’s definitely interesting is the colour scheme - he wears bright pink and/or purple. Now, in-universe that’s not so wild, because let’s be real, most heroes and villains in comic books dress pretty outrageously - in evidence, Mags is actually rather subtle compared to some of the 90s’ characters. no one really comments on his style in-universe either. But one thing I noticed is this:
that’s Magneto as excellent guy in new issues. The pink and the purple are notably muted suddenly or completely absent. And yeah,there are plenty of examples of excellent guy Mags wearing his classic glance and there are many examples of his pink outfits being turned red even in his villainous times, but lately, the most drastic changes in his classic uniforms are associated with Mags as a good guy and they erase the pink colour scheme as much as possible. One notable exception is the Age of X-Man look -
(I denote was he a good guy there? or a horrible guy? Or a bad guy believing he’s a fine guy when he’s really not except not in the way Magneto when he’s bad usual
X-Men ’97 has been peppered with controversy over its characters, but creator Beau DeMayo proudly acknowledges the changes he brought into the show. Even though he was fired from the project days before its premiere, he continues to keep an eye on the series and even responds to fans’ comments.
As an openly queer man, DeMayo claimed that the series’ story was informed by his own experiences in life. There’s no wonder why there are some queer characters in the show, which of course, elicited divided reactions from the viewers.
Beau DeMayo Is Guilty Of Incorporating Queerness In X-Men ‘97
On highest of all the issues concerning X-Men ‘97 characters, a fan posted on Twitter a risky Magneto photo and captioned it with “#XMen97 was definitely written by a gay man.” Surprisingly, Beau DeMayo replied to it with a simple “Guilty” answer.
In Marvel’s X-Men: 60 Uncanny Years Live Virtual Event, DeMayo shared his life working on X-Men ‘97 and how he managed to share some sway on the series through his own journey as a “black gay man.”

Queer Atmospheres
10 years ago, X-Men: First Class brought the seemingly dead franchise back to being. After the critically panned X-Men: The Last Stand five years prior, many wondered if the series could ever bounce advocate from it’s failures. To acquire viewers and long-time fans help on board, Matthew Vaughn injected life back into the franchise, and along with this animation came queerness. While you may know the X-Men franchise as being overtly queer now, before First Class, any subtext was driven out to focus on the (ridiculous) love triangle between Wolverine, Jean Grey and Cyclops. The chemistry between the newcomers was undeniable, and with the help of queer Tumblr users (hi!), the X-Men franchise was reborn as the queer series we now love.
Now, I perceive you may be thinking, “who the hell are Alex and Darwin?” Well dear reader, I’m glad you asked, because I’ve been wanting to talk about them for a hot minute! Alex Summers and Armando Muñoz (Darwin) are two dudes who Professor X and Magneto recruit to join their team of mutants in When First Class premiered, yes, I was s

Longtime comic fans like to joke that deaths in super hero comics has grow meaningless.
However there is an argument to be made that both the death and the destined revival can and will still have impact if both feel "earned".
Like when the death works as hypothetical end point for a character or is so dramatic or impressive that the reader is still engaged in how it fits into the story.
Meanwhile revival of characters shouldn&#;t feel "mundane", because even if the reader doesn&#;t take their deaths solemn anymore, the characters very well should act love they believe their demise could be final. As such their revival needs to either remain a "miracle" involving difficult to repeat circumstances, events or actions they could contain not forseen, or it needs to be a major struggle, if not for them then the characters bringing them back.
Considering Magneto recent death can be considered "earned", this story now needs to land the
