VILLAINS


MARVEL VILLIANS – LOKI v.s ULTRON


LOKI


Matt: Thor Sch’more! I’ll admit it, I’m high-key in love with Loki. I love a man who keeps
me on my toes. One day he’s buying me roses, the next day he’s offering my life for a
kingdom of his own. Silly babe. And best of all? If I get tired of his one face, he can just
transform into another. He must be a Gemini.

 


ULTRON


Brandon: I’m a sucker for sterling silver jewellery. Which is probably why, visually, Ultron
can for sure put a ring on this finger. Created to help mankind but found it better if we
were all just terminated so he can do it himself – this is LITERALLY why I don’t date
Capricorns. Ugh, why do I always fall for men with a God complex?!

 


DISNEY VILLAINS – MALEFICENT v.s. DR. FACILIER


DR. FACILIER


Brandon: I love a man with a PhD. Dr. Facilier is always a step ahead of me. No,
LITERALLY, he knows exactly what I’m going to do before I do it. A master at cards?
Um, casino trip anyone? Always saying he has “friends on the other side”, yea okay
babe but like, CAN I MEET THEM THOUGH?

MALEFICENT


Matt: All hail the first Queer Disney icon to grace the big screen. Maleficent showed us
the importance of wearing a bold lip, how to make an entrance, and how to make an exit
(where are my dragons!?). And like all of my favourite Drag Race contestants, Maleficent
may not have been a sewer, but she sure made it work! You can prick me anytime.

 


CARTOON VILLIANS – HIM v.s. PLANKTON


HIM


Brandon: I mean, COME ON. NEED I SAY MORE? HIM is the moment, has always
been the moment, will always be the moment. HIM taught me more of my gender fluidity
as an adult than any article I’ve ever read. Described as a flamboyant demon – the
lewks, the androgyny, the psychological warfare?! Wait, am I, HIM?! ::Queer gasp::


PLANKTON

Matt: As someone who donned a unibrow from the age of 9-13 (lets be honest, it was
22) I can’t help but feel completely seen by Plankton. I’ve always prided myself on
never being a size queen; instead, I’m more enamoured by a man’s vision, and world
domination baby, that will take you allllllll the way. Come on Plankton, let’s sing the “Fun
Song” together and I’ll let you know what the F stands for..
