    Default Justice Straight league

    why isn't there a gay cahracter in the new JLA? I mean DC seem to want to show multicultural society but when it comes to the JLA? I think this is abit of a cop out if you ask me.

    I can't see it as being a cop out, hell not every race and sexual orientation can be represented on every team, who knows whether a gay character will join later on or not..meanwhile there are teams like Outsiders that have more than one gay or bi character in them.

    Superman and Wonderwoman aren't going to be in the League? That's news to me.
    Wonderman is only Pro for the shiny new rocketbelts. :D

    Why should anyone even care about the sexual orientation of superheroes in the JLA? Putting an openly gay character in would just be a publicity stunt and wouldn't actually make the storylines better or anything.

    Damn you DC. On your new super team you failed to show diversity by including characters to represent Latinos, Arabs, Native Americans, Asians, Mongolians, Homosexuals, Bisexuals, Transsexuals and Transvestites. DC should stand for "Diversity Censored".

    J/K :p

    I prefer to think that the League has probably had several gay members... but their teammates were too heroic to even inquire about it one way or the other.

    You don't see them prying into each other's religion very often, do you? Same deal.

    Maybe Batwoman could join after 52 wraps up.

    Why isn't there a character with a Hypo-thyroid condition on the team?

    There have been four openly gay and bi-sexual members of the JLA that I can remember.

    Interesting. I was just reading a thread on the dcboards where people were moaning about how trying to diversify the League was ruining it. Personally I think those people were wrong, but I don't think DC should be creating the team to try and make sure there's a gay man, a gay woman, a black man, a black woman, and asian man, an asian woman, Superman, Superwoman... etc.

    I don't know--Roy and Hal are awfully close . . .
    Praise be to Nero's Neptune,
    The Titanic sails at dawn,
    And everybody's shouting,
    "Which Side Are You On?"

    And Ezra Pound and T. S. Eliot,
    Fighting in the captain's tower,
    While calypso singers laugh at them,
    And fishermen hold flowers.
    Between the windows of the sea,
    Where lovely mermaids flow,
    And nobody has to think too much,
    About Desolation Row.

    What character fits the bill for JLA member ship that is gay.Not to many top tier Characters are gay.I think outing an established char at this point would just give me a very very big headache when the fanboys would start to complain
