#201: “The Origin of Iceman” (with Dr. Christopher Roman)
Manage episode 377391747 series 3234503
Our amazing friends have joined us for this three-episode season of Amazing Friends origin stories! Dr. Christopher Roman, author of Queering Wolverine in Comics and Fan Fiction: A Fastball Special, brings his background as a professor specializing in comics studies and queer theory to analyze this depiction of one of the gayest X-Men – Iceman! And while there’s plenty of queerness to pull from Bobby’s coming out story (told through a futuristic mind probe…for some reason) it’s also split with a Videoman return that doesn’t quite give Iceman his due.
We’re watching Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends: Season 2, Episode 1: “The Origin of Iceman”.
