February 15Feb 15 CB Team Since Valentine’s Day just passed, it got me thinking about some of the great relationships in comics. Who is your favorite couple from DC or Marvel?
February 16Feb 16 Author CB Team For me, Gambit and Rogue have always stood out. Their dynamic and history make their relationship feel earned, and it’s been interesting to see how it’s evolved over time.Reed Richards and Sue Storm are another favorite. They’ve been through so much together, and their relationship has always felt like a core part of the Fantastic Four.
February 18Feb 18 CB Team One of my all-time favorite couples that broke up is Cyclops and White Queen, and I love them far more than Cyclops and Jean Grey. Ultimate Spider-Man Peter and MJ are fantastic, and I also love Aquaman and Mera.
February 18Feb 18 CB Team My favorite is the one Marvel won't allow to happen anymore: Daredevil and Black Widow.
February 18Feb 18 Peter and MJ - old enough to remember Peter and Gwen but he always felt more right with MJ to me.

Somehow I haven't seen those.Arguably, one of the first (if not THE first) queer couple in comic books, thanks to Grant Morrison's fantastic Doom Patrol run (although Mallah was already queer-coded in his Swamp Thing appearance a coupleof years before that). They are absolutely wacky together, because it's a disembodied brain and a smart gorilla, but somehow they have a relationship that's loving, tender, and heartfelt.
February 20Feb 20 Shang Chi and Leiko Wu ... a top-level spy and the master of Kung Fu ... a true "power couple" before power couples were a thing. As for villains, what couple has more evil gravitas than Thanos and Lady Death.
