Exciting news! The new batwoman, just released by DC Comics is coming out (literally) as a lesbian! See this article on CNN for more information.

I think my favorite comment is "Wouldn't ugly people as heroes be more groundbreaking?" asked one poster. "You know, 200-pound woman, man with horseshoe hair loss pattern, people with cold sores, etc.?" Hmm...how to interpret that? I guess I will take it as a nice compliment indicating that lesbians are not ugly! I'll make sure to let my 200-pound, hair-losing lesbian friends know...

Now, my only question is...how long before Batman & Robin finally come out?
