It's the tights, isn't it?

In case you haven't been keeping track, here's the Hot & Fresh! Gay Geekly round-up:

  • Superman isn't gay, although he may be Jesus. (Maybe Mel Gibson should direct the sequel.)
  • Batwoman definitely is a lesbian. (Doesn't change the fact that outside of hardcore Batfreaks, most folks think that's a typo for Catwoman or a post-feminist Batgirl .)
  • Spider-Man comes out. (He "swings" through New York all day long. Are we really surprised?)
  • Anyone paying attention to the X-Men franchise can see that the geeks and the gays operate on sides on the same thin line. Hell, some of us even occupy the grey area that connects us. If Superman's crotch or a lipstick lesbian heroine help anyone out, I'm all for it.

    Now, if you'll excuse me, there's a new Wonder Woman in town and an issue of Astonishing X-Men waits for me. And I've got to pre-order those tickets for the midnight premiere of Superman Returns.
