I read an article a couple of years ago saying that whichever publisher owns Rawhide Kid is going to do a sequence of issues in which Kid is revealed to be gay, although supposedly it was all pretty PG-13.
Dunno if that fact is discussed in the underlying NYT article; I won’t often go to NYT links, as I don’t like upping their traffic / ad-rates.

They’re all gay, it’s the whole tights with boots thing that gives them away.
That and they never marry except in those special “what if” issues.

There are dozens of positively portrayed gay characters on TV while they make up about 2-4% of the population. There are zero positively portrayed Christian characters on TV when they make up the majority of the population. Yep, gays are treated so unfairly by the networks and media.

Propaganda as childrens’ entertainment.
Anticapitalists are well represented in comic books. Where are the “positive” conservative depictions in comic books?

Here's your consolation: a
video of how the AG Duo got their start. It's amazing this stuff was on TV.

AIDS AIDS AIDS!
AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS!
Everyone has AIDS!
And so this is the end of our story
And everyone is dead from AIDS
It took from me my best friend
My only true pal
My only bright star (he died of AIDS)
Well I’m gonna march on Washington
Lead the fight and charge the brigades
There’s a hero inside of all of us
I’ll make them see everyone has AIDS
My father (AIDS!)
My sister (AIDS!)
My uncle and my cousin and her best friend (AIDS AIDS AIDS!)
The gays and the straights
And the white and the spades
Everyone has AIDS!
My grandma and my dog ‘ol blue (AIDS AIDS AIDS)
The pope has got it and so do you (AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS)
C’mon everybody we got quilting to do (AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS)
We gotta break down these baricades, everyone has
AIDS!

Do they want a superhero to act like a queer? Nah, they want a queer to act like a super hero. It can't be done.
