that’s one thing about the story:
maybe it’s good to call him “gay” because the erasure of anyone who isn’t a cis straight white man from history is such a common thing ( hello oppenheimer movie ) - but i also like the nuance that the term - and the othering of men who have sex with men - is something modern.
would he have used that term? it’s an interesting question.
this graphic novel looks awesome. i can’t wait to check it out
