    Default DC LGBTQ+ characters 2022 appreciation

    New year, new thread 😊

    2021 appreciation thread: https://community.cbr.com/showthread...1-appreciation


    Main DC LGBTQ+ happenings of 2021:

    • Tim Drake comes out as queer (bicurious/bisexual/maybe gay – not specified yet) (Batman: Urban Legends #6)

    • Jon Kent comes out as bisexual (Superman: Son of Kal-El #5)

    • Nubia is confirmed as queer (Nubia and the Amazons #3)

    • There are trans amazons living on Themyscira (Nubia and the Amazons #1)

    • Vixen comes out as bisexual (Harley Quinn: The Animated Series: The Eat. Bang! Kill. Tour #4)

    • Zala Jor-El and Diana/Wonder Woman are in a romantic relationship (Dark Knights of Steel #2 – an alternate/ Elseworlds type of universe)

    • The first LGBTQ+ anthology is published by DC (DC Pride #1) – the debut of Justice League Queer (JLQ)

    • The JLQ appear again in Tis the Season to Be Freezin' #1

    • Superman/Clark Kent reorganizes the Authority. The line-up includes LGBTQ+ members Steel (Natasha Irons), OMAC, Lightray (Lia Nelson), Midnighter, and Apollo (Superman and the Authority)

    DC is doing surprisingly well with LGBTQ+ leads. Any recommendations among these books?
