Okej, after searching for about an hour for academic essays on this, I've decided to ask for help in my search. Can anyone point me in the direction of an essay (or a place where I could find one, frell, a serious discussion would be good) about homosexuality in cartoons from the 1980s?

Yeah, my roomies and I were watching crap on Youtube today (OMG Silverhawks in spanish is teh roxxorz11) and since we're all gay/bi/in to media studies (and stumbled upon a clip from the pilot episode of Thundercats...GAH Lion-O...jailbait...NO CLOTHES!! :headessplodes: ) we were wondering if anyone in academia has written about the frakking HUGE amount of latent homosexual themes in 80s cartoons.

So if anyone could help us, that'd be very nice. :)
