Major DC Comics character to come out of the closet

DC Comics plans to reintroduce a character as gay in a future issue, it has been revealed.

Co-publisher Dan DiDio previously said that the company would not change the sexual orientation of an existing superhero and would bring in a new one altogether. But at Kapow Comic Convention in London on Sunday, he revealed that an existing character - who was previously assumed to be straight - will become ‘one of our most prominent gay characters’, according to comic blog BleedingCool.com.


Not sure if this is a fight or foreplay
I'm not an expert on the comic book universe, so I'm out of my league here.  I just assumed it would be Robin.  But I don't think Aquaman would be a surprise either.  Those are my #1 and #2 seeds.  Dark horse candidate is the Martian Manhunter...maybe the guy has been way out of the closet for years and everyone just thought he was a weird alien?
 

Robin looks pretty comfy in this get-up...interesting
