ROB'S DISPLEASURE AT THE WHOLE THING AND HISTORY FAIL MAKES IT 100x SWEETER, IMO.

Hmm...who would they put? So far I'm thinking:

Bruce/Clark
Booster/Ted
Dick/Tim
Bruce/Jim Gordon
Hal/Ollie

Do Booster and Ted really qualify as bromance? I think there may be an extra letter in there somewhere.

I notice that neither Cap & Bucky nor Power Man & Iron Fist are listed... possibly because there might be some question as to the platonic nature of those friendships, too.

Of course they do have Hank McCoy and Simon Williams...

I'm curious as to who Marvel thinks is going to pick this up. (I mean, we know who's going to buy it, but...)

I hoping that it's Marvel's way of saying "OK, if this sells well, maybe well let someone come in and do a manga-style BL series about Billy and Teddy."

I am hesitant to love this idea.

Without Shoujo bubbles, "Maybe They're Born With It, Maybe It's Maybelline Syndrome (tm)" or overtones of seme/uke stereotypes = Fantastic idea, best thing to ever happen, etc.

With the afforementioned factors = Terrible idea of the omg-kill-it-with-fire variety.

Yeah, the targeted demographic is a leeetle unclear. Bromance to me is a stereotypical frat boy thing, but, what stereotypical frat boy buys comics? (Hint if they are doing that they are not being stereotypes q.e.duh)

the people who bought the Spidey/Human Torch mini, who bought Cable/Deadpool, who keep asking them to put Beast on a team with Wonderman, etc.

Well, I just made up bro-jobs (defined as: the kind of blow-jobs that straight men give each other that totally aren't gay)

But I love the rageface.

They're not mentioned at first but later the summary says that it includes an issue of Power Man and Iron Fist.

It feels like some sort of failed manga...now, if they made them all teens, maybe...
