Telekinian
Patsy Walker has actually been around since 1945, but didn’t become a superhero until the 1970s. In the current series Patsy Walker a.k.a. Hellcat, she’s roommates with Ian Soo, a bisexual bookstore clerk who discovers his telekinesis—and his Inhuman lineage—after contact with the Terrigen Cloud.
Initially, Ian didn’t want to be a hero, but he took to using his powers to help Hellcat when they crossed paths with his abusive ex-girlfriend.
Telekinian is an interesting character: A positive representation of bisexuals, a guy who has made mistakes and is relatable, and who’s also been a victim of domestic abuse but has risen above it. Plus, he’s in an adorable relationship with Patsy’s old friend, Tom Hale, his boss at Burly Books.
