I think that, regardless of their moral standpoint, Harley and Ivy are a better example as they are both capable of love in most modern iterations (Earlier versions of Ivy literally weaponised her sexuality) and depicted as being genuinely and mutually besotted with each other and pursue an active romantic relationship, with various ups and downs along the way (like real relationshios), whether they are villains or not.
For some reason I recall "Cannon and Sabre", a minor pair of villains in the 80's Vigilante series (I think). A duo of mercenary assassins whose gimmick was that Cannon used a sword and Sabre used a gun. They had what might be described as a "CCA dodging" gay relationship. They were affectionate with each other, and it's as strongly implied as they could get away with, that they were a romantic as well as a business partnership. Morally reprehensible people, but closer to being gay icons than the Joker could ever be.
Even Mystique and Destiny, two hardcore terrorists who kill with cheerful abandon, were shown to be longtime lovers before they were radicalised. Admirable? Not remotely. Plausibly gay? Absolutely
