Official JLA discussion thread - Part 1

The lack of love that Uncle Fester is receiving in the new DCU is disturbing.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Eh, Uncle Fester's used to it.

 

[Mystirious]

That would be even worse than Black Canary and Batman.

No it wouldnt it would be fantastic

Its already obvious those two like each other that way from Simone's Birds of Prey. And Simone has said many times on her Tumblr that all the subtext between them is completely intentional on her part

I would absolutely love it if Black Canary and Barbara Gordon became a couple and I really hope that they do

It would be far more interesting to me than any of the romances either character has had in the past. And it would definitely be better than Batman/Black Canary

Mother-daughter incest or *********ion?

Neither

Black Canary and All Star Black Canary. She hooks up with herself

Oooh. Black Canary and Red Tornado!

Red Tornado is married and has a kid with his wife

Don't destroy their family!

 

[Anubis]

Too late.

Reboot.


Blame Barry Allen.

 

[HighFivingMF]

Too late.

Blame Barry Allen.

Damn him for being so awesome.

 

[Mystirious]

Oh you

Too late.

Reboot.


Blame Barry Allen.

RAAAAAAAGEEEEE

AQUAMAN WAS ****ING AMAZING!!!!!!!!!111!1!!!1!

 

[HighFivingMF]

I've read Aquaman and Flash. I loved Aquaman and Flash.

 

[Lord]

When is Justice League 2 going to be released?

 

[Scarecrow_King]

October 19, according to DC's webpage.

If that's true, she's writing worse fan fiction than Geoff Johns when he's touching himself with Hal Jordan.

But... this post isn't unexpected, and neither will the answer to any question of how you'd react if any character that's been defined as homosexual suddenly was written as having a heterosexual relationship.

 

[Scarecrow_King]

If Babs and Black Canary hook up, I will boycott DC in the same way that Mysti says she'll boycott them if they ever make Kate Kane straight. it's the most ******ed and asinine "shock value" revelation ever. **** that.

 

[RoughNTumble]

Why don't we have any black friends, mom?

 

[Charlie Boy]

Because Grandpa scared them all away with his rifle all those years ago.

 

[The Batman]

Clark isn't with Lois, Lois is with someone else and Clark is rumored to hook up with Wonder Woman. Barry isn't with Iris, but Patty apparently. Ollie isn't with Dinah. If the first issue of GL is any indication, Hal and Carol aren't exactly on good terms. Batman/Catwoman and Aquaman/Mera are the only "same ol' pairings" I can think of.

In Batman's case, he's not only doing catwoman, he also has a love interest in detective comics, and another potential love interest in The Dark Knight title.

I would throw up if DC ever made any of their gay characters heterosexual as its a repulsive thought and it would be bigoted to do so the thought of any gay charactee being turned straight disgusts me and it would be the only reason I need to stop buying all DC products

But Babs and Black Canary have never been defined as heterosexual though. I consider them both bisexual

I consider any characters sexuality open to interpretation unless they state that their gay/bi/straight

All DC's gay and Bi characters have stated their sexuality. As far as I'm concerned thats the end of the story and if DC ever made any of them heterosexual I would be repulsed and disgusted and boycott DC forever

But if DC made a character who had never stated their sexuality gay/bi and it made sense and was a good story that wouldn't offend me personally

 

[TheCorpulent1]

All irrelevant, in my opinion. Batman can screw whomever he likes, but he'll never have a "real" love interest. Mask of the Phantasm illustrates why quite nicely.

Yep his mission as Batman is always going to get in the way

I'm sure that even when he's 90 he wont be able to give it up. He'll probably just train someone to do the actual heroics while he supports them from the cave like in Batman Beyond

babs and dinah are both straight. i'd consider dinah's marraige to ollie a pretty solid statement that she's straight. i'd consider babs' love affair with dick (grayson) a pretty solid statement that she's straight. yet there are little to none homosexual implications of their characters.

 

[Mystirious]

I don't think them dating men proves they're straight they could still be bisexual

They are definitely not gay but in my opinion they are definitely bi and I would love it if her and Black Canary got together. I think they'd be a great couple

 

[RoughNTumble]

that would just seem like fanfare

when have they shown bi-tendencies?

 

[Mystirious]

There was lots and lots of bisexual subtext between them in Simone's stories that she has said was completely intentional

That's what made me start shipping them

They're definitely bi? Based on what evidence, aside from one writer's perspective (link to where she said that, please, BTW) and their lack of specifically saying that they're not, and therefore ruling out the possibility. On that note, I don't think I've ever seen Superman specifically state that he's not bi, but I'm still gonna say he's straight. Even if a past writer reveals that he wrote Superman as bisexual. Doesn't matter.

 

[Mystirious]

And at the end of the day lgbt romances are the only kind I'm interested in reading about

Boy meets girl just bores me silly

Boy meets boy or girl meets girl are the kind of romance stories that I'm actually interested in and want to read about

So I only really ship boy/boy and girl/girl pairings

That's just the kind of story I like to read

That's crazy talk Spike

Superman and Batman are obviously into each other
