Yup. And DC needlessly made the first Green Lantern come out of the closet, made a gay Flash, bi Wonder Woman and apparently John Constantine, made a black adolescent Green Lantern with an attitude problem, has switched the main Lantern to being a black guy (he's been one in animation for awhile anyway), turned many female characters into man-intolerant lesbians, and much more.
I really doubt that teenage boys are going to pick up comics in order to enjoy twinks, dykes, and BBC, so where's the revenue going to come from, DC? Shitty movies? And comics shops are dying, last year killed many off.
I don't read mainstream comics anymore. especially avoid DC, but I follow the business and eyeball samples. The whole field has sunk into the mud in story, art, and content, and innovation worth reading seems to be in the larger alternatives now. But there are several publishing lines that are a hope for the future.
My new slogan is 'don't fuck with my culture, Commies.'
Odd how they don't make the villains black or gay.
I swear that if DC makes movies with gay black heroes I will have to target their Manhattan HQ from orbit and reduce to Communist ashes.
There are rumors of a black Magneto. Titania just became black.
