… Honestly, I’m surprised when people don’t already think of Zangief as a gay character. (Via the-judge.)

I always thought this was Capcom’s biggest wink to Zangief’s status “as gay as he looks,” what with the photo of pretty boy Vega tacked to the mirror. However, he’s actually doodled some defamatory things on the photo. Sill…

Reasons why Mike Haggar reads as a Tom of Finland rip-off: his build, his moustache and the fact that he wears that single, over-the-shoulder suspender suspender that I’ve never seen outside of a Tom of Finland sketch.

First, sir, let me congratulate your on your evocative screen name.
Second, I would like to answer both your questions with Final Fantasy VI’s Sabin, though in the state where he’s been victimized by the later CGI “improvements” to the title, which left him looking a little dead-eyed, weirdly smooth and like some rugged wood-bear’s dream boy.
