In this week’s edition of Cup o’ Joe , Joe Quesada responds to Kiel Phegley’s questions about the revelation (or confirmation) that Shatterstar is gay. Quesada commented “I thought it was totally cool. As long as it works within the story and it makes for a good story and character development, I have no issues whatsoever.” When asked about Shatterstar co-creator Rob Liefeld’s comment that Shatterstar isn’t gay and hoped to undo this characterization, Quesada replied, “…and ultimately while Rob is one of the guys who created Shatterstar, Shatterstar is a Marvel character and not a Rob Liefeld character.”
