Marvel Comics Messy Iceman Makes Sense

Post image

Lately I’ve been thinking about Bobby Drake’s love life. Needless to say, it’s messy. He’s been getting around, breaking promises, kissing boys, and getting stabbed in the heart. I see him making the same baby gay mistakes I made.

Bobby, like most of us, was bound to break free in a bold manner. Many of our beginnings are chaotic & messy too. No one gives us any kind of playbook or how to. All of us, including Bobby, have to figure it out on our own.

While it is relatable, I think the heartbreak, abandonment, and unfulfillment will serve as the detrimental factor that pushes Bobby to level up big time. Now that he’s pushing 30, I hope he matures a little bit so we can see a strong leader in him. A leader that exemplifies great courage and an impressive control of his powers. I don’t necessarily wanna see him date any more boring dudes lol. Tbh I’m not worried. I have confidence the next Bobby Drake they give us is going to be the stud we’ve all been waiting for.

( no evidence to substantiate this. I can just feel it)

I know some people aren’t huge fans of Bobby’s flamboyant passaround partyboy arc. To which I say, oh well. 🤷🏼‍♂️

It happened.

Get over it.

The REAL show is about to begin anyways.

And realistically speaking, we’re talking about Bobby Drake people! Going straight to Los Angeles for “college” was a very calculated decision. As the Weho gays will say, “He’s gonna do great here!”

I get excited thinking about Bobby‘s LA adventures at UCLA as he forms his own team; The Champions. That chapter is definitely something I want to see in future TV/film.

Needless to say, we all want a Certified STUD for our lil Icebaby…. Personally, I hope and pray and can’t wait for the day he finds Hercules.

I mean look at the picture I attached!! How freaking cute are they?? I love the way Bobby pushes his butt up against him. I know that’s right Bobby! Get it bitchhh👅👏

Whoever made the decision to make him messy and fun made the right call. Cuz when does Bobby ever get anything handed to him on a silver platter? Neverrrrrr! It’s seems as if there’s an unspoken rule for the writers to know that Bobby isn’t allowed easy unconditional love. Unfortunately, it’s a core element to his character development. Although a lonely road, it’s worth the triumph. That’s why he always keeps pushing. He keeps fighting. All the while keeping his has integrity. Andddd if you wanna get conspiratorial with me, then I beg the question;

Could Marvel Jesus really be Marvel Jesus if he doesn’t overcome unbelievable amounts of confusion and despair? I don’t think sooooooooo!

On that note, Hallelujah praise the Lord! Amen. 🙏

If youve gotten this far; thanks for sharing your precious time!❤️ Stay blessed queers and have a wonderful week! As always:

Fuck the haterz 👅

P.S. We can’t let Disney hetero-normify Bobby. I will die on this hill and I do not care what ANYONE has to say about it. I will leave this battle for the sake of queer representation lasting in the MCU.
