The creators do seem to be doing a more Infinity Inc. theme as opposed to new JSA. Not that this would happen but I always thought Andrew Garfield would make a great Obsidian. For what it is worth.

Off topic, but I was hoping to get as many votes as possible in my tournament. I am going to close the first round on Thursday, so I hope you all get the chance to cast your vote on the best DC film of all time:

Hello! I’ve been avoiding the Community section for… however long the Community section has existed… largely because I was very concerned about being unwelcome as a queer trans person. But I happened to glance in on it today, and here’s this, and it’s lovely! LGBTQIA+ comics-related topics is one of my main Things - I recently submitted a chapter for a LGBTQ+ Studies textbook on the history of queer/trans characters and themes in superhero comics. (My three-words-per-bullet-point notes were 10k words long and the chapter length was limited at 2500… So I have. A Lot Of Things To Say.)

Note: I’m 120% rooting for Obsidian to show up on Stargirl, but my shoot-for-the-moon dream is that they’ll use the version of Shining Knight that’s canonically nonbinary and bisexual!

Oh, and just for kicks, here’s a panel from the issue where the First Indisputably Trans Superhero In Mainstream Comics came out/was outed:


I just felt the need to give a shout out to my man Masquerade, representing the Angry Trans community since 1993.

Hello! I have joined! I’m still pretty new to using the community feature so this is all quite an adventure.

My favorite character is Tim Drake closely followed by Selina Kyle. I firmly believe TimKon could be canon. My favorite LGBTQIA+ ship from DC is Renee and Kate, I just love them.

Excited to get to know everyone!

Cause she’s amazing! She quickly became one of my top five favorite characters. Have you read Mother Panic? I liked their short interactions and I think it’d be fun if Kate and Violet had a fling XD

Yes! I really loved Mother Panic and Violet is canon bisexual which is great! All the Young Animal books are really good. I highly suggest Mother Panic and Shade the Changing Girl. Several gay/bi characters in both titles.
