**SPOILERS FOR LOKI EPISODE 3 “LAMENTIS.”**
As Pride month comes to a close, queer nerds across the globe are still celebrating Marvel’s decision to make bisexual Loki canon in the MCU. The character has long been queer and genderfluid in the comics, but this week’s episode of Loki directly acknowledged the eponymous character’s sexuality, as well as that of fellow variant Sylvie. This long overdue moment of queer representation comes courtesy of out director Kate Herron, who prioritized the reveal:
From the moment I joined @LokiOfficial it was very important to me, and my goal, to acknowledge Loki was bisexual. It is a part of who he is and who I am too. I know this is a small step but I’m happy, and heart is so full, to say that this is now Canon in #mcu #Loki pic.twitter.com/lz3KJbewx8
