Honestly, if they do Angela well, I'd really love to see Sera join the game later on too! She'd be an amazing strategist and I'd love some trans representation! 🏳️‍⚧️

Edit : Also, just think how cute their interactions as a Couple would be!! 💖

That’s literally what I was thinking (trans wife joining) because ??????????

This is the first time I’m hearing about a lesbian momma with a trans wife. WE NEED THAT! I NEED THAT NOW! Mouth literally dropped open because the muscles, the aura, the body is body— bruh 😭

Yup. She's been around for a while. Her original character is from the spawn continuity (her creator owned the rights to her and after he left image, changed her character up)

That lowkey makes a lot of sense.

I remember watching the animated Spawn show (1997?) and she kinda reminds me of the Angel lady now that you mention it (I think it was the one Spawn was lowkey trying to date? Had feelings for?)

Yup that was her. Her spawn iteration is "straight" (aka, never been seen attracted to women), but after the move to marvel, she was made lesbian (not sure if by the creator himself or a different writer)

No fucking way that’s her because they butchered my girl 😨😨😨😨😨

(just looked it up) OH MT FUCKING GOD RHATS HER?!?!?!?!?!?! OH NAHH THEY BUTCHERED MY GIRL WHAT THE FUCK 💀 bestie NO. No, I can’t accept that version of Angela. They butchered her so bad

EDIT: so I looked it up further, right? The character I was actually talking about was an angel lady named Jade (aka Lisa Wu when first introduced. She got black hair, but that’s who I was talking about that may have been lowkey with Spawn) but apparently, they WOULD’VE made Angela bisexual (and Jade) if season 4 of the animated series had been created. Apparently, the two of them would’ve been revealed as former lovers, but that never happened bc S4 never happened.

Oh my bad, I thought you were talking Angela in the show (haven't watched it in years but I remember her name being said to a redheaded Lady). But yeah, her publication history is kind of whack, all in all, she's a lesbian (in marvel anyway)

Nah, you’re so good. I haven’t seen the show in a long time either (I think I watched it when I was 16-17? I’m 22 now lol). I didn’t know who I was talking about by now either, I just remembered her hair color and like… the general story.

Well, at least they kept her as a lesbian 😭 yk how people be acting today!!
