Is Batman gay? Major DC Comics character to come out of the closet!

[CelticViking]

DC Comics plans to reintroduce a character as gay in a future issue, it has been revealed.

Co-publisher Dan DiDio previously said that the company would not change the sexual orientation of an existing superhero and would bring in a new one altogether.

But at Kapow Comic Convention in London on Sunday, he revealed that an existing character - who was previously assumed to be straight - will become ‘one of our most prominent gay characters’, according to comic blog BleedingCool.com.

Senior VP Sales Bob Wayne said DiDio’s view ‘had evolved’, comparing the shift to Barack Obama’s recent endorsement of same-sex marriage.

DiDio did not specify which character would ‘come out’ or in which issue it would be featured.

But Courtney Simmons, DC Entertainment’s senior vice president of publicity, told ABC News that it would be soon.

'One of the major iconic DC characters will reveal that he is gay in a storyline in June,' Simmons told the network.

Speculation: Some Twitter users assume Batman will come out as gay

There has been much speculation on Twitter about who the character could be
@JenWhy12 Tweeted: ‘One of the characters of DC comics will be gay, what one will it be? I hope it's Batman.’

@dnghia added: ‘DC Comics is about to unveil that one of its supeheroes is gay. Who do you think it is? My money is on Aquaman.’

DC Comics’ portfolio includes iconic characters such as Batman and Robin, Superman, Wonder Woman and Green Lantern.
Batwoman, a DC favourite, made her comic book comeback as a lesbian in 2006.

Shit for buggering children.

Wouldnt it be easier to just invent a queer superhero....Rainbowman or something.

The pink phone rings and Rainbowman doesnt take his make up off...but plasters another layer on and whirls out into the high street doing high kicks and mincing to solve another domestic crime....where some housewife has a quiche thats burning in the oven....or has an impromtu dinner party to arrange...and only our hero of the hour Rainbowman can save the day....etc etc.

No they purposely take one near and dear to people that has been passed down for generations and out him as gay. It's not an accident and it is meant to "teach" people a lesson: See, the one you love from your childhood? The one you knew would keep everyone safe? Well he's gay and don't you now feel guilty for having such a low view of gay people?

100% manipulation.

It's been long known Entertainment industry is brainwashing children and teenagers to become homosexuals or groupies or promiscuous or delay marriage or commit adultery or divorce and so on and so forth. Everything but propagation of normal families. And that is taking more and more extreme forms. Look at now-days pop video clips. They are one thong slip away from strip tease. For our children.
