REIMAGG ROB HOOD AS A BADASS GAY OUTLAW
This alternate take on the classic hero and his patrts go back to the legend’s roots and rebuilds around an LGBT talked to the creative team about where this ia me om, how gay people were perceived back those days (’s very different than today), and how beg historilly accurate adds to the story. That's how I'm treatg them Merry Men; though even there, some of the st are exclively gay, and some are ls so. In the book, "merry" is a term that's analogo to our "gay, " but 's much more poro; clus anyone whose sexual life strays outsi the bonds of the strictly heterosexual norm.
Tled, simply enough, Merry Men, the ic book is wrten and created by out wrer Robert Rodi, wh art by Jackie Lewis, and featur a bold new story that rests the faiar medieval characters as gay Men might sound at first like a lightfully mpy seri, but is que the oppose. The ic is a ground, realistic look to a world where Rob Hood, still the faiar rogueish lear livg the woods wh his band of outlaws wh a good e, is now also a badass homosexual who ris up the face of discrimatn and opprsn.
WHY ARE PEOPLE GAY? GAY BY CHOICE OR IS BEG GAY GEIC?
Rodi: I'm a history buff -- ancient and medieval pecially -- and I was lurkg around some webs when I me across the qutn "Was Rob Hood gay? One of the tertg thgs you haven't seen yet, bee 's an upg issue, is the revelatn that our villa, Prce John, cis to e the oft-quoted passage Levic for polil reasons; 's a means of gettg at the gay alli of his brother, Kg Richard. One of the ways I'm tryg to be te to the perd is that the 12th century there was no ncept of homosexualy per se; the term self was hundreds of years om beg was same-sex activy, of urse, but that was seen as a behavral issue, not as an exprsn of inty.
Acrdgly, some of the Merry Men are bisexual, others entirely gay, and there's one -- I won't say which right now -- who is actually straight, but who feels a sense of gratu and loyalty to another member of the group that manifts self as a kd of romantic love.
