Anyone who pays attention to the comic book world knows about the recent announcements that Marvel and DC have been making about the presence of gay characters within their respective super-hero universes.

The eventual winners were Scott Everhart and Jason Welker, and they tied the knot just a few days ago, on June 20 when the milestone issue of X-Men was released.
