Please note: Back when Green Lantern was presumed to be straight, there were no romantic side stories. Wasn't that kind of comic. Let alone sex scenes.

Whining by the author aside, the only story is it isn't selling.

No right wing protests or anything like that. Wouldn't he love that martyrdom publicity? But the right wingers have already written off the comic book industry and certainly children don't buy them any more.

Virtue signaling is more important than making money.

These people will NEVER understand that the country at large is much different than the sicko world outside their window in the city...

There has always been flirting, girl friends, and romance in comics since the 30s.

However in this case they have taken someone who had a wife and kids and rewritten him as a homosexual adding explicit sex as well. Which the fans rejected.

The funny thing for me is that this character’s weakness to his ring was ...get this... “wood”. The jokes write themselves.

Nobody with half a brain needs it.

The Godless Reprobates never stop pushing the agenda.

Just like in the Days of Lot. As prophesied.

Why would people assume we would want to see super heroes having sex?

Buggery, straight or with a robot no one wants to see that.

Ok maybe a very small group of perverts would. But statistically, no one cares.

10 years ago I spent hundreds of dollars a month on Comics, mostly DC Comics. Then they became super-gay, politically correct, and too expensive. They got rid of the decent writers. Mainstream comics are dead to me now and I relish reading about their downfall.

There is nothing erotic OR exotic about two men, on buggering the other with a bunch of painful uncomfortable groaning. What possesses these people to think any of that is natural. What possesses them to think other people want to read/see animated caricatures of it?

Tim Sheridan brings shame upon Alan Scott/Green Lantern creator Mart Nodell and the entire Golden of comics. Outside of interior decorating and beauty salons; queers ruin everything they touch.

It just confirms what we know about men dressing up in costumes and tights who think they’re superheroes out to change the world!

Why is anyone having sex with anyone in a comic book?

Boy, things have changed since I was a kid.

How many, many people fail to acknowledge the entire media system (from movies to mags.) has joined in a concerted effort to “wokify” and turn left our culture is beyond me.

I mean Kathleen Kennedy of Lucas Films actually ADMITTED it after South Park roasted her for it for darn sake!!!

No one is as blind as those who refuse to see.

When will the alphabet soup mob get it through their thick heads that most of us are not interested in learning about their sexual predilections? I don’t have enmity toward them, really, but I certainly don’t want to be a consumer of their byproducts.

Green Lantern always seemed like an alternative kind of dude to me. I never bought his comic books though I thumbed through a few at the store. Anyways he was way down the list back in my comic book days

He wants people to buy his book to make a point? I think most people buy a book because they want to read it. Maybe he found that out, and maybe he will also find out that LGBTQetc. people are not nearly as fascinating to normal people as they are to themselves.

I haven’t purchased a comic book in decades, and I never will again, and it’s because of the perversion that is now prevalent in the comic book industry.
