8	'''A Administrivia/{{No Recent Examples\|please}} rule applies to this trope'''. Examples for episodic works shouldn't be added until '''end of season''' for the season introducing the ambiguity (or after '''3 months''', for episodic works without seasons). This is to allow time for the story to develop the character and resolve ambiguity. There is no waiting time for non-episodic works.

17	%% Jughead from ''ComicBook/ArchieComics'' was formerly listed here, but the suggestion was refuted by a MOUNTAIN of
18	%% evidence that his dislike of girls was simple no-girls-allowed immaturity with no gay implication.
19	* Cacofonix from ''ComicBook/{{Asterix}}''. He is the ''only'' male villager to have neither a wife nor occasional love interests, he plays up to stereotypes of [[AlwaysCamp camp, self-declared artists]], and in ''Asterix and the Secret Weapon'', while living in the forest with the rest of the village men in an all-male society, there are love letters pinned to his tree.
20	* In ''ComicBook/AstroCity'', Nightingale and Sunbird are frequently rumored to be a lesbian couple, to their never-ending annoyance.
21	* Clash from ''ComicBook/JemAndTheHologramsIDW'' is a huge fangirl of the all-girls band The Misfits and is their groupie. She also has a very close friendship with Blaze (who is canonically gay), however it's hard to tell if it's supposed to be platonic or [[ShipTease intentionally romantic]].
22	* An EnforcedTrope with Tangle and Whisper in ''ComicBook/SonicTheHedgehogIDW''. The pair are shown to be extremely close, one scene with them features background colors resembling the lesbian pride flag, and [[spoiler: Whisper reacts with a brutally visceral SayMyName when Tangle succumbs to Zombot infection]]. But Sega mandates [[NoHuggingNoKissing prohibit characters from being portrayed in romantic relationships, period]], so they can never be confirmed as a couple.
23	* An intentional use of this trope is in Creator/AlanMoore's ''ComicBook/{{Providence}}'', showing how this trope was used in the era of the Closet. Robert Black, whenever he meets another man he suspects to be gay, uses contemporary slang and oblique references to suss out the other's preference, such as the wearing of a green tie. Though the minute he sees Tom Malone, he comes close to giving himself away. Dr. North heavily implies his sexuality when flirting with Black, recognizing him as a man "familiar with Greenwich".
24	* In ''ComicBook/ProjectSuperpowers'', it's strongly hinted that The Woman In Red and Lady Satan are a couple. Red even openly states that she's not usually attracted to men.
25	* The title character of ''ComicBook/YokoTsuno'' never appears to have a boyfriend, but she eagerly bonds with cute young women throughout the series, which makes quite a few fans wonder about her sexual orientation. In later albums the author tries to couple her with her best friend Vic, even though they don't even have a fraction of the chemistry Yoko has with some of the other girls -- [[PseudoRomanticFriendship especially Ingrid]].
