Billy kaplan gay

Billy carved out a niche as a groundbreaking and worthwhile new addition to Marvel Comics as a key member of the inaugural Young Avengers lineup. The life and times of Billy Kaplan are complicated. First introduced in Young Avengers 1 , Billy was lovingly raised by Jeff and Rebecca Kaplan in New York, but his true origins can be traced decades earlier. In Avengers West Coast 52 , he and his twin brother were conjured into existence through fragments of the demon Mephisto.

Being openly gay from a young age, Billy was regularly bullied and ridiculed at school for his homosexuality. One day he unknowingly came into contact with his biological mother Scarlet Witch who seemingly activated his mutant powers of reality warping also known as magic which he demonstrated by nearly killing his bullies. However Mephisto managed to reabsorb the fragments but destroyed himself in the process due to the power Scarlet Witch embued in them which in turn created Billy and twin brother Tommy aka Speed. Billy discovered his true parentage after joining the Young Avengers, who are essentially fanboys, girl and proteges of the Avengers.

That's right, I am somehow still not dead. Might be soon though, the way classes are going. Billy Kaplan is a mitant that was created magically by Scarlet Witch alongside his twin brother, Tommy. These two were split up at a young age, and Billy was adopted by Jeff and Rebecca Kaplan.

Hello everyone! We are just trying to acknowledge those characters who are LGBT, that's all. Billy is a character I can relate to in a couple of ways. One, being a homosexual teenager, obviously.
