Yes those are their actual names, after the backlash they never appeared in published comic(these are from sneak peaks at a then unreleased new New Warriors series) apparently their origin involved inhaling 'internet gas'
They were also on a super team with Teen Morbius, Adult Dora the Explorer and the boy with the entire internet in his brain
apparently their origin involved inhaling 'internet gas'
Iirc that was actually from another character from the same document called Screentime. Whose whole power was he could Google things with his mind.
Are we talking Google 2016 or Google 2026

This has to be a bit. 
No, bit's are binary
Oh, it was absolutely real
The reaction was so bad that they scrapped the entire thing and tried to scrape it off the internet
Wow. Seems like deliberate sabatoge.
I think Marvel hasn't come out with a good idea in the last 15 years and this is just the pinnacle of their creative process
In a better timeline, "Snowflake" and "Safespace" would be names of two characters in an ultra-meta-post-ironic MS Paint looking parody fanime by a non-binary person satirizing liberal satire of chud onejokes while also satirizing the chud onejokes themselves. Unfortunately, in this timeline, Marvel got to the idea first.
They would pilot a sentient Apache helicopter
100% would have been the names of bit characters in The Boys had Marvel not actually tried this for real
Breaking down the gender binary by flipping the stereotypical colors and doing literally nothing else, outstanding work
On the one hand, non-binary people don't owe anyone androgyny: my own non-binary OC reads as pretty fem-presenting outside of xyr own fictional culture, but goes by xe/xem, You Can Just Do That. So if these two characters were real people, we hopefully wouldn't be complaining about them not looking "enby enough."
On the other hand… It really does feel in context like they just took a stock woman and man, gave them both short hair, and gave the woman the boy color and the man the girl color, and called it a day. It feels like a pretty cringe forced insertion of the gender binary, I guess.
Don't forget the haircuts
AI could never make something this funny
This might as well be a slur
That shit 100% got created without consulting a single non-binary person.
a Seconds From Disaster episode where they analyze the sequence of compounding safety failures, negligent maintenance, and tragic coincidences that allowed this to occur. Interspersed with mournful interviews. "You know, it's funny. You don't think it can happen, until it happens. I look back on myself and I shake my head. We were so naive."
there was this bizarre period of time in media where the right wing was crying about woke but the liberals had not fully internalized woke.
as a result we have this very funny tragicomic age of things that you are not quite sure if you are looking at a stealth way to make fun of young people or a failed attempt to related to them. its like brainworms of all kinds collided in the big corporations in such a passive aggressive way that nobody on the teams fully understood which of them was the white supremacist all along.
liberals had not fully internalized woke.
They still haven't, the only woke liberals are those that are part of a marginalized group themselves and most of them are exclusively woke about their own marginalized identity without a shred of being intersectional, and without the faintest awareness how easily they can be thrown under the bus when they become inconvenient to their supposed allies.
I remember seeing a video about this. The designs of these 2 aren't the worst thing in the world but the names are so bad lmao. It's the perfect corporate 
while having no understanding whatsoever of these words and how they were/are used. It feels like out of touch at best and parody at worst.
This shit doesn't communicate anything. I can Google "nonbinary people" and come away with a better understanding of I read a single SEO optimized whatever on the subject.
What power do they have? General ice and maybe some kind of beam? There's no subtlety or implication of anything about them? Inclusion should at least mean making the heros distinctly like those people and then preferably make them look capable of doing something cool.
Or even give it some humor! What if it was a closeted hero who had a rivalry with Mayhem Magnet? They have to learn from a Trump-monk at the top of a mountain that magnets stop working if you put them in water. So they embrace their identity as a genderFLUID hero, douse the magnets, destroy the dipolar menace, and save the day?
Their story continues when they have a checkers guy they have to play chess against (the villain comes back playing chess so they have to learn 4d chess). They have a computer programmer (binary babe) they have to go into the quantum realm to expose her weakness.
All the while they're trying to reconnect with their estranged nonbinary sibling who they shunned while they were closeted and they're looking for redemption.
God forbid you make a fun story instead of reskinning formulaic bullshit
Not sure with snowflake but yeah probably some sort of Ice based powers, or if Marvel was cool they'd make them the equivalent of DC's Snowflame(who is awesome)
Safespace could create forcefields but only if they were actively using them to protect people
Or even give it some humor! What if it was a closeted hero who had a rivalry with Mayhem Magnet? They have to learn from a Trump-monk at the top of a mountain that magnets stop working if you put them in water.

They start the climb in full Juggalo makeup which the reluctantly have to remove after learning the secrets of magnets
The author of dorohedoro makes way better non binary character designs just by making every woman shredded and huge
I mean are you going to tell me im wrong
