I think Hal Jordan is the Green Lantern most people think of, and he’s not gay. Just the rebooted “new 52” version of the really old-timey Green Lantrn is gay.

[erod]

The first GL too (Alan Scott).

That's sad DC has really lost my business I always liked Marvel more anyway.

[Fred Hayek]

I prefer the more descriptive term mutilant.

[greene66]

Holy smokes. That’s the first time I’ve actually seen the new “homo” Alan Scott.

Makes me want to vomit.

[cherry]

all I know is that every one of these transgendered or male to female figures seem to have bigger boobs than most regular women.....

[LostInBayport]

I remember when they were called "funny books"

They used to be quality material...humor, drama, fantasy. From childhood they took me all kinds of places. Generally, they became more sophisticated in the 70s, recognized the adult audience in the 80s, became too commercialized in the 90s. The 2000s lost me...the wonder was removed, the gore ramped up, everything became so crass and negative and the overt liberal agenda became paramount.

There is a wealth of good stuff in back issues. I would refuse today's comics if they were offered for free.

[Olog-hai]

Marvel’s got their share of gheys.

In the original continuity, the straight Alan Scott married a split-personality woman called Rose Canton (her other personality was “Thorn”, a supervillainess); they had two kids together, who ended up superheroes themselves (Jade and Obsidian).

[MtBaldy]

Haven't read a comic book in 50 years. Looks like I won't be starting again either.

[EEGator]

Yeah, they all seem to be sporting 38 DD.
A little bigger than average. :)
Maybe they shoot videos in Van Nuys, CA when they aren’t fighting crime.

[EEGator]

Lynda Carter was a hottie back in the day.

[x]

Batwoman -- who I didn't know actually "existed" until now -- is supposed to be a lesbian.

I was surprised about Green Lantern. I'd have thought Green Arrow -- alias Oliver Queen -- was the one.

[Rides_A_Red_Horse]

The actor that played Magneto wanted a gay sex scene with Professor X in one of the movies. Fortunately, the film makers wanted to make a profit.

[Dr. Sivana]

I'd have thought Green Arrow -- alias Oliver Queen -- was the one.

A lefty, and the most unconvincing disguise ever (silver age), but he was ALWAYS very close to Black Canary, whom I could not picture being Ollie's beard.

[who knows what evil?]

Author James Robinson lives in San Francisco...DC is headquartered in Manhattan...they are trying to portray the perverted world they see outside THEIR windows, and project that view upon the rest of the country.

[Axenolith]

My Junior year high school government teacher was appeared to be her separated-at-birth double.

[EEGator]

I bet you didn’t learn a thing in her class...well, of the subject material. :)

[bicyclerepair]

Actually, I think hot teachers help.

My Spanish teacher in HS was smoking hot. I got all As.

[1010RD]

So a man who looks like a woman, dresses in a weird, caped outfit admits it? Sounds like a clear cut case of mental illness. Search him for guns.

[Freedom_Is_Not_Free]

Why?

...

We don’t deserve God’s protection anymore.
