One of the kids in Captain Underpants turns out to be gay in the books. So canonically, would that make the character in the upcoming animated film gay as well?
In the final Captain Underpants book the two boys, George and Harold, go into the future and find themselves married with kids. Harold just happens to be married to a man…and nobody bats an eye. It’s just there and chill.
The creator of Hey Arnold referred to his character Eugene as protégay, meaning he’d be gay once he grows up. So perhaps Harold is protégay as well?
I also think it’s interesting that both George and Harold are revealed to have ADHD, and the author, Dav Pilkey, had chosen the illustrative style of the book because of his dyslexia.
Bet you didn’t realized Captain Underpants was this deep.
