Iceman and Pyro have gay sex three times in the new ‘X-Men Gold’ comic

The new comic has thrown LGBT-comic book fans into a frenzy

Iceman has sex three times with Pyro in the latest ‘X-Men Gold’ issue.

Back in 2015, the superhero – also known as Bobby Drake – came out as gay after a time-travelling version of himself revealed he was gay.

But it was in 2016 when the character shared his first same-sex kiss with Romeo that LGBT-comic fans were thrown into a frenzy.

And now, in Issue No. 31 of the ‘X-Men Gold’ comics, Drake and Simon Lasker aka Pyro have sex three times in one night.

The scene – which is something out of a porno – sees Pyro, who has rejoined the X-Men after working with the Brotherhood of Mutants, is in Iceman’s hotel room after a wedding.

In the morning, the two characters reveal that they didn’t get intimate just once it was three times after Pyro propositions Iceman to join him in the shower.

Unsurprisingly, LGBT-comic fans took to Twitter to share their thoughts with one saying the storyline would have given “teenage me a heart attack”.

Are we the only ones hoping this scene actually makes it into an X-Men movie?
