The Pride Month Lettering 00020-Negative Man from Doom Patrol

Larry Trainor, aka Negative Man, is a crucial character in the Doom Patrol TV series, where his storyline revolves around self-acceptance and overcoming internalized homophobia. Starting as a closeted gay man in the 1950s, Larry struggled to hide his true identity due to societal pressures and homophobia. His relationships, especially with John Bowers, were kept secret, causing him to feel guilty, ashamed, and isolated.  The accident that merges him with the Negative Spirit only adds to his struggles, forcing him to confront his identity and self-hatred like never before.  However, with the support of his spectral companion and the quirky Doom Patrol family, Larry starts to unravel his past, embrace his true self, and embark on a path of emotional growth that is truly inspiring to watch unfold. So, I’d like to celebrate his journey and great love with my lettering pieces in honor of Pride Month.
