You might be aware that Marvel Comics and DC Comics have each produced comic books with a gay superhero, but Surge is the first gay superhero on the big screen, which started with the screening of the first Surge of Power movie in 2004, Surge of Power: The Stuff of Heroes.

The recent Power Rangers movie promised the first gay superhero – the Yellow Ranger, who was hardly gay or out, but in any event, still behind Surge’s first two movies. Even those characters portrayed as gay and a superhero on the big and small screen are often tokens, secondary, or part of a team. Surge is the only gay character who is the lead in all his movies. It’s still more in comic books than in cinema where you can find a prominent gay character who is a superhero.

Speaking of Surge, it turns out Marvel has a female character of the same name. But listen up, we’re telling you, Marvel’s Surge is more pandering to straight boy fantasies than a response to the LGBTQXYZ lobby with her exaggerated tits and a basic lady-wolverine personality type. They seem to have given her similar gadgets that the real Surge has. Gag me with a spandex onesie! Anyway, the good Surge came out first – in both ways. Surge is cinema’s first out gay superhero.

So, if you want to strike a blow for justice, go see the real first gay superhero to come out and blast his uptight foes with all kinds of nutty powers.

Well, what are you waiting for, silly?

Watch the movies now!
