I HOPED. But I wasn't holding my breath, because it's Marvel and Marvel never really plays up gay male relationships, even though this one's been just on the precipice of canon for oh, a decade? Longer than that.
I haven't kept up to date with marvel, so even-on-the-cusp relationships are unknown to me.
but yaaaaaaaaay homosexuals in popular media that aren't just "oh by the way this character is gay but we'll never develop them beyond that one trait" yaaay
This one's been hinted at since... 1995-ish, back in the first run of X-Force. So it's awesome to see it finally happen.
PAD says he'll be keeping Shatterstar in for at least five issues, more if it's well-responded to. Plus on future episode descriptions it sort of sounds like Ric and Star may be going on a weird sort of date at some point.
