* ''ComicBook/BlackPanther'': During Creator/{{Christopher Priest|Comics}}'s run, [[ComicBook/SubMariner Namor]] shows up in his [[{{Stripperific}} usual attire]], which combined with having apparently just come out of a body of water and being soaking wet, causes resident ThisLoserIsYou sidekick Everett K. Ross to narrate: "...homina... homina..."

* Franchise/{{Batman}}. He's been romantically involved with multiple women, but also attracts a lot of FoeRomanceSubtext with his male enemies.
** Harley and Ivy both think that the Joker only has eyes for Batman (and Harley is in love with the Joker) and the Joker has often professed affection towards Batman (complete with moments of desperate attention-needing). In the macabre ''Comicbook/ArkhamAsylumASeriousHouseOnSeriousEarth'', which is a canon ''Batman'' comic, Joker slaps Batman on the butt and continually hits on him throughout the comic. The pages are lined with homoerotic content and an unnatural level of sexual tension. Several canon Batman comics have the Joker professing a sexual fascination with Batman, to [[ILoveTheDead nightmarish]] [[{{Yandere}} extents]]. This extends across some adaptions. He outright says Batman has a cute little ass in Arkham video games.

** ''Franchise/{{Superman}}'' and Batman have [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/HoYay/Superman a lot of Ho Yay]] with Superman hinted at being AmbiguouslyBi partly due to some of his actions towards Batman.
** This can apply to ComicBook/TheRiddler as well. The Franchise/DCAnimatedUniverse-based [[ComicBook/TheBatmanAdventures Batman Adventures Vol.2 #11]] involved him, having sort-of-reformed, trying to get Batman to match wits with him. One of the clues he left was 'Next time, lives will be at stake'. When Batman tracks him down, he hears screaming, bursts in -- and finds the scream came from the ''lobster the Riddler was cooking for him'' ([[{{Pun}} along with a steak]]). It helps that he was wearing a "Kiss the Genius" Apron too.

* In ''ComicBook/BlackPanther'' by Creator/ChristopherPriestComics, [[ComicBook/{{Submariner}} Namor]] shows up in his [[{{Stripperific}} usual attire]], which combined with having apparently just come out of a body of water and being soaking wet, causes resident ThisLoserIsYou sidekick Everett K. Ross to narrate: "...homina... homina..."
* For obvious reasons, nearly every guy in the Marvel universe is gay for ComicBook/CaptainAmerica. Especially ComicBook/SpiderMan, ComicBook/IronMan, and ComicBook/{{Deadpool}}.

** ComicBook/{{Deadpool}} has a complete {{fanboy}} {{Squee}} moment with [[http://scans-daily.dreamwidth.org/2563277.html Thor]], remarking on how pretty [[Comicbook/TheMightyThor Thor]] looked, leading to a DidISayThatOutLoud?
* [[ComicBook/{{Daken}} Akihiko/Daken]] in Marvel Comics. Again, justified due to the guy's powers: he has SmellsSexy pheromone-related ones that allow him to alter emotions and perceptions in other people, thus making women ''and'' men want him. And even more: Daken himself is a DepravedBisexual. It is notable that Daken's appeal is exclusively a function of his pheromones, rather than any kind of general attractiveness. Hulkling of the ''ComicBook/YoungAvengers'', despite being gay, is entirely unaffected because he is not a human. He is also fully aware that Daken is trying to influence him with his pheromone powers.
* ComicBook/{{Gambit}} is very much this. He can even charm men. For a while, one of Remy's powers was hypnotic charm, which let him try swaying any sentient being of any gender to his side but that has been changed. This "power" is no longer mentioned, and it's heavily implied that he is just that charming.
* [[ComicBook/IronMan Tony Stark]]. Even the male ''[[EnemyMine supervillains]]'' want him. (Hell, the first Crimson Dynamo [[HeelFaceTurn defected]] and then ''[[TakingTheBullet died]]'' for him.) Here, have a (terrifying) canon example:

* Comicbook/{{Loki}}, particularly ComicBook/LokiAgentOfAsgard who, like his mythological counterpart, is a shapeshifter. When he dies, he's resurrected as a child and joins the ComicBook/YoungAvengers, no one really notices, but when he's magically aged up, the first reaction is: "Okay. ''Now'' he looks like trouble!" It's implied that Fandral has a thing for him, and at one point, when Sigurd, [[RunningGag The Ever Glorious]] tells Loki and Verity that he'll make up for his actions via dinner and possibly more, neither of them know to whom it's directed (it's hinted to be both). During Axis, his Avengers call-sign is "Pretty Boy," given to him by Sabertooth of all people.
* Comicbook/{{Nightwing}}. Even without the most recent example--where [[Comicbook/TheAuthority Midnighter]] correctly identifies him solely [[FemaleGaze by his ass alone]]--there have been years of throwaway lines from Dick's male Teen Titans teammates, male Bat-allies, and male nemeses commenting on his looks (not to mention a line of dark, broody Batman expats who have repeatedly stated their intentions to make him their "partner", whatever that entails). Out-of-universe, we have ''Batman'' writers and DC editors admitting to Dick Grayson's intolerable hotness.
* ''ComicBook/SpiderMan'': Spider-Man's a ChickMagnet and his enemy Chameleon once told him he loves him, right before jumping off a bridge. Also, Electro visits a shape-shifting prostitute in the Marvel Knights series, and it's strongly implied he wants her to transform into Spider-Man for him. Then there's the symbiote and therefore Eddie Brock acting like a {{Yandere}} to him. Also, Norman gets one-sided subtext with Peter/Spidey and during the "Return of the Green Goblin" arc of ''ComicBook/UltimateSpiderMan'', we get to look at things through Norman's eyes during a conversation with Spider-Man. The voices in his head tell him things like "kill him" "skin him" "burn him" and "kiss him". Another issue had the titular hero go headfirst through the windshield of a car where one male police officer is commenting about Spider-Man's form-fitting costume to his male partner. After a beat panel, the first officer points out Spider-Man's toned butt. ''ComicBook/{{Deadpool}}'' also has much HoYay towards Spiderman to a one-sided degree. Also, Gabe of ''Webcomic/PennyArcade'' has recurring dreams of being saved by Spider-Man. Gabe, uh, is [[http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2002/05/06/ a little more happy than you might expect]]. [[http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2006/03/29/ A later comic gets even more intimate.]]
** An issue of Fantastic Four showed Johnny Storm sleeping in his bedroom, which is adorned with Spider-Man merchandise. In particular, he's cuddling a Spider-Man doll. Then there was the time Johnny and Spidey became roommates. Johnny cooked Peter breakfast wearing nothing but boxers and a frilly apron and generally acts like a jealous housewife. In the Ultimate Universe, Johnny Storm ends up once dating Jessica Drew, then the Ultimate Spider-Woman (now the new Ultimate Black Widow), who in this world is a clone of Peter Parker, including memories and personality, but in a female body. The original Peter is pretty horrified by this.

* [[ComicBook/XMen Longshot]] in ''ComicBook/UltimateXMen'' charms a (later proved) gay Colossus, and in ''ComicBook/XFactor'', Detective Lieutenant Weiss is clearly smitten and insists on being called by his first name...Leslie.

* As only a sophomore in high school, Jean-Paul (Northstar) is this in the ''Franchise/XMen'' fanfic ''FanFic/MutatisMutandis'' by [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/2359030/Artemiss_Liege Artemis's Liege]], catching the eye of two upperclassmen and apparently initiating an affair with his combat instructor Wolverine, all seemingly straight.

* Scott Nash in ''Where the Boys Are '84'' which is about four college coeds going to Ft. Lauderdale during spring break to [[AllWomenAreLustful sow their wild oats]] (as described in more detail by [[http://movieloversreviews.blogspot.com/2013/01/where-the-boys-are-84.html Movie Lovers Review]]). This film was produced by Allan Carr who was [[HaveIMentionedIAmGay openly gay]], the screenplay was written by Stu Krieger and Jeff Burkhart and directed by Hy Averback. Carr personally fleshed out the backgrounds with personally inspected buff boys. Glendon Swarthout's official website says that it almost became "[[http://www.glendonswarthout.com/films/wheretheboysarefilm.htm the first gay beach picture]]".

* Daichi from ''Literature/GreekNinja''. During the final battle, Creon notes that he's good-looking after seeing him when Sasha saved him from being decapitated. Having said that though, [[AnythingThatMoves Creon had tried to make a pass on Sasha earlier...]]
