It's gotta be Green Lantern.......he's two-fer...........

Your concern is understandable. I just don’t think that the target is there anymore - it’s moved.
Do kids read comic books anymore? With the availability of hardcore porn at the touch of a button on the damnable little black boxes we all carry now - what is the power of a pulp paper anachronism? Besides, kids don’t have to go to comic books to get that kind of indoctrination - we pay for it in spades with our school taxes. It’s written into every aspect of the curriculum.
Let’s get outraged at that instead.
To be fair, Zapp Comix had Ruby and her Dyke Pirates decades ago.
It’s gotta be that Green Lantern guy.......I never did trust him.............
But in what demographic? You may be correct, but the kids are being inundated with LGBTQETCETCETC indoctrination. What is the relative importance of a (as some here have hilariously pointed out) ambiguous couple depicted in a comic book vs. what they get every minute of every day FROM THEIR TEACHERS!
Not only "has" but has been for the past several decades, dating back to the (first) rise of superheroes in the 1940s.
Movies, TV shows, toys, clothing, video games, etc. Superheroes have always been popular. They are our modern version of Atlas, Mercury, etc.

Not really. While kids remain extremely interested in superheroes, they get their fill via cartoons, movies & video games.
Coming book collecting is now seen as another generation's hobby. Who else would pay $3-4/issue to get only one chapter of a story, only once a month, at a specialty store? Especially when a $25-60 video game will give them months of interactive enjoyment.
Perhaps digital comics will help re-attract kids, but the big two companies (DC & Marvel) have been slow to change with the times in that respect.
Don't you check out what the kids read? At all?
These aren't just supposed to be heroes, people to emulate, but Super Heroes.
Even fictitious heroes are supposed to be role models--'normalized' perversion just doesn't fit that description.
Holey turnpike restroom stall walls Switch-hitterman.
It’s McGrevey in the next stall.

It can't be Green Lantern Hal Jordan, because he is in love with Carol Ferris, and also Jillian "Cowgirl" Pearlman.
It can't be Green Lantern John Stewart, because he married the late Katma Tui.
It can't be Green Lantern Kyle Rayner, because he is in love with Soranik Natu.
It can't be Green Lantern Guy Gardner, because he had a girlfriend named Kari Limbo. In fact, he seems to have had several girlfriends.
I wondered about former Green Lantern Sinestro, but apparently he was in love with Arin Sur (Abin Sur's sister).
So I don't think it's a Green Lantern character. But with space divided into 3600 sectors, with two Lanterns per sector, there are plenty of other choices.
I've always been a little suspicious about G'nort, though...
you must have missed the memo...
...everybody is now gay, including you. Get used to your new lifestyle.
Their sales figures will evolve too.
I liked the Justice League and JL Unlimited that Cartoon Network ran years ago. Recently I have found a lot of them on Youtube and they have been fun watching.

Think South Park "Super Adventure Club".
I'm thinking about joining Ivo Shandor's Gozer-worshipping cult...
The world's too sick to survive.

How/why would the sexual preference of a comic book superhero even come up?
This is beyond asinine.
Guess us straight guys should be introducing ourselves as..
