Benji Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 DC Comics unveils first gay superhero http://cosmos.bcst.yahoo.com/up/player/pop...15&src=news
Bondwriter Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Darn. I'd always though that Batman and Robin... Well, never mind.
Prince Duchess Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Darn. I'd always though that Batman and Robin... Well, never mind. I'm with you on that one
JamesSavik Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Correction: this is the first lesbian superhero. Northstar, a member of Alpha Flight- a Canadian team of mutants in the X-men universe, was the first gay supehero.
Benji Posted February 12, 2009 Author Posted February 12, 2009 Not having read comics in like 30 years or more, hahaha! Is this Northstar with DC comics?
Bondwriter Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Yeah, I agree with James. Marvel also had a gay couple, I mean explicitly, in the Young Avengers. Billy Kaplan, aka Wiccan, and Hulkling, aka Teddy Altman.
Pai-kun Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 There are other gay and lesbian superheroes. That might be DC Comic's first lesbian one, though. But definitely not the first one.
hh5 Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Hey they not so original as QAF - Rage!! http://www.planetout.com/entertainment/news/?sernum=293
AFriendlyFace Posted February 14, 2009 Posted February 14, 2009 Correction: this is the first lesbian superhero. Northstar, a member of Alpha Flight- a Canadian team of mutants in the X-men universe, was the first gay supehero. I was thinking of Northstar myself. Hey they not so original as QAF - Rage!! http://www.planetout.com/entertainment/news/?sernum=293 Haha, Gotta love Rage and JT!
J_Ross Posted February 14, 2009 Posted February 14, 2009 Is this Northstar with DC comics? Nope. Northstar is with Marvel comics. I'm pretty sure. I was thinking of Northstar myself. Haha, Gotta love Rage and JT! Michael (QAF) mentions Northstar in a conversation w/Ben when Ben's looking for comics for his class at the university he teaches at.
Julian Alexander Posted February 14, 2009 Posted February 14, 2009 Hmm, I'm sure I remember reading that they made Catwoman lesbian ...
JamesSavik Posted February 14, 2009 Posted February 14, 2009 Hmm, I'm sure I remember reading that they made Catwoman lesbian ... Does that mean we start calling her CATTY-WOMAN *runs away to hide*
Benji Posted February 14, 2009 Author Posted February 14, 2009 Haha! I quit reading comic books when I was ten or twelve years of age, old man said it was a waste of time.
Benji Posted February 14, 2009 Author Posted February 14, 2009 Errrr! Same time he took away my Teddy Bear!
Drewbie Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 Yea, there been more before this one, thanks for bringing it up, Would explain things with cat woman if it's true.
