How soon until there are lots of gay superheroes in the movies too?

I watched Quantico a few times, if they didn’t have all of these gay overtones and probably other pc stuff, it might have been watchable. Never again.

Quantico went far beyond undertones.

Piss poor journalism:
The Ray first appeared in a 1973 issue of Justice League of America.
Incorrect. The Ray, along with a number of others (Uncle Sam, Phantom Lady, The Human Bomb, Black Condor) were first published in the 40s. The companies (I believe Quality Comics - I’ll have to confirm) assets were acquired by DC comics about the same time they acquired Fawcett’s (known for Capt. Marvel/Shazam)in the early 1970s. The 1973 appearance was the first DC appearance.
He wasn’t gay until the last 10 years or so...like a lot of others including Alan Scott the original Green Lantern.
This co-opting and rewriting has made me stop buying new stuff. I only purchase older comics now (~1990 and prior) to fill gaps in the collection.

The first Ray, Lanford Terrill, came out in 1940. Ray Terrill (first published 1992) is the original’s son.
The 2016 “DC Rebirth” version of Ray Terrill is the homosexual one.

Six years later, Miles Morales is the least-popular version of Spidey.
The Toei version from the Japanese TV show, Yamashiro Takuya, is more popular.

I’m aware of the son Ray, but even in the 2006 and 2007 Uncle Sam and the Freedom Fighters volumes he wasn’t gay... in fact in issue 1 of the 2006 series right after the initial fight with Doll Man he came back to a very nubile young lady in his bed... hmmmm. So yeah it’s been in the last 10 years. (I just got that series in a dollar box about a month ago - very nice read for the price).

Just watch .. all the words co-opted to describe homosexuals over the years have become tainted and unpopular in practical use. Such will be the rise and fall of the popularity of superheros. Once comics have been co-opted to support homosexuality, they will no longer be read, with the exception of a homosexual fan base. I quit watching Arrow and Once Upon a Time. They are no longer "fun". I doubt I am alone in that. I will never pay to see a homosexual spiderman movie. It's just not going to happen.

Never understood why they had to change characters when they could make brand new ones. Even now it doesn’t make sense because they also made however many new green lanterns.
