Will Alan Scott, DC’s Original Green Lantern, Be Reintroduced As A Gay Man?
Bleeding Cool ^ | May 24, 2012 | Rich Johnston

Understand that this is not a firm story. Not like DC Comics renumbering all their New DCU comics to issues zero through September, say.

This is based on a number of well sourced people and involves considerable hearsay.

It does however make a lot of sense.

Who is the, as yet unknown gay character being reintroduced to the DC Comics superhero titles? Male, an iconic character, someone who would become one of DC’s most prominent gay characters?

I’m hearing that it’s Alan Scott, the original Green Lantern.

AND I sent an email to the xbox people

REMBER these are MEGA-brands. Video game consols need people to buy these games.

NOBODY is going to buy a “gay” game for their children’s xbox.

Dan DiDio is the culprit at DC Comics...he was previously employed in the world of ABC ‘soap operas’...

Every day it's a new guess and new pejoratives.

(Cue: "Hey, look, it's the Pink Lantern!")

They’re just adjusting by a generation.

Obsidian was gay in his previous life.

The softer target would be your local comic shop...call them and tell them you do not appreciate them marketing this crap to children...most of these stores are a financial house of cards, and would not be able to stand against any semblance of bad publicity or a boycott. THEY will put the pressure of DC...we will be ignored.

The funny part is they are going to lose big!

Rowling didn’t “out” Dumbledor as a homosexual until after the series’ completion. Even then, she never alluded to this in any book.

She got her money first. Then she ingratiated herself to the “must attend” parties crowd.

Too bad if it's Green Arrow. I always liked characters that weren't radioactive powered, just smart guys who happened to be badasses.

Although I liked Green Lantern as a kid, he was too powerful, thus became boring. Kind of like Superman. It never made sense that Superman didn't just go medieval on criminals. Dead Lex Luthor= no more world-threatening evildoing.

It’s not Green Arrow. They said it won’t be a hero they’ve already reintroduced (last year, they “rebooted” their entire continuity, and are still rolling out some of their, erm, retooled characters).

They said one candidate is a character called Vibe. Never heard of him, but the name sounds appropriate.

Should be Aquaman. That character is totally gay.

Perhaps that ‘pedo bear’ should be part of AC/DC Comics new logo...

Maybe “The Rainbow Lantern”...

(The Pink Flamer would be the new title for Marvel’s Human Torch ;)

Vibe the “hip” hispanic character that went nowhere?

The one who whose power was vibration? (human vibrator?)

Warner Big boys should be firing the lot at DC.

she backed off the claim when the suits pointed out (contracts) noting this would affect her cash flow.

She reduced it to “would have thought” or some set of weasel words.
