Shatterstar and Rictor are two superheroes who've been around since the late '80s. They were originally supposed to be gay for each other but Marvel got cold feet (like they did with Mystique and Destiny) and the two just ended up as friends ... very close friends. They went their separate ways for quite a while but they have recently reunited in the pages of X-Factor where it looks like they're going to be making up for lost time. - via Heroes 'N Hunks (site NSFW).
