Truthiness factor: Zero.

Marvel had at least one other homosexual super-hero. From Wikipedia Alpha Flight 1983:

Northstar: Jean-Paul Beaubier, from Montreal, is a mutant with powers of super-speed and light generation. He was the first openly homosexual superhero in the Marvel Universe. He eventually becomes a member of the X-Men.

I was going to mention the same thing. Whatever Stan “I loved Hillary” Lee decides to do, it’s already been done with Alpha Flight.

Also, DC announced over two years ago that the new Bat Woman is a lesbian (and also Jewish).Not a superherio, but the Rawhide Kid was brought back as a gay character too, over at marvel back in 2003.

I was kinda surprised to hear this. Lee was reported to have died about a month before the opening of the most recent release of "The Hulk."

I just accepted it as the truth, but obviously it must have been some kind of publicity stunt or something!

Agree, Ben Awfuleck and his pathetic career are in parallel.

Whoever he creates will be quick to hate Prop 8 and put condoms on all the bad guys faster than a speeding bullet.

But the media reports will remain the pure propaganda that they are. Welcome to Obamerika, fellow untermensch.

Don’t worry, Bahnee Fwank will become the politician of Amerika’s desire.

Thank you for pointing this out because if you didn’t I was going to.

Maybe Stan means there has never been a gay superhero who was the star of his own book. That might actually be true. I can think of several gay superheroes but they are all members of teams.

Then again that old showman Stan might just be cynically drumming up publicity. Excelsior!
