Iceman, a founding member of the X-Men, will come out as gay in the latest issue of All New 'X-Men' comic.

In a collection of leaked panels from All-New X-Men 40, Bobby Drake finds himself outed by fellow teammate Jean Grey, the Verge reported.

The revelation makes Iceman one of the most prominent (and powerful) LGBT superheroes in Marvel comics, and is in keeping with the company's push for more diversity among its characters.
