a question

Please--if any of you know of any canonically non-binary characters in popular media, would you let me know? I'm thinking of writing a meta post about the sorry state of non-binary representation, and I'd like to see if I can't find some more evidence than I have right now.

Thank you!

Ooo, neat, here's my contributions:

Loki from Agent of Asgard (comic) onward is genderfluid. IIRC Loki uses the pronoun Loki when self-identifying, and swaps sex in addition to gender because being a shapeshifter is the best.

Desire from The Sandman (comic) is both genders.

Inukashi from No.6 (anime/LN) is agender, probably, and uses masculine pronouns (not directly addressed.)

And, okay, I never read The Wicked and the Divine because I stopped reading comics right when it got big but I'm like 80% sure Luci/Lucifer is nonbinary.

OF COURSE! Kieron Gillen (who birthed the current, clearly superior comic Loki even if Al Ewing finalized it) seems to try to write full diverse characters.

Inukashi is the best ;^;

(Also I literally just found the queer comics database I don't know if you already know about it because I didn't haha.
