Episode 89: LGBT Characters in DC (with JennytheGeek) Kurt Onstad

Celebrating Pride Month, we are looking at some of the characters in DC Comics that belong to the LGBTQ+ community.  I invited JennytheGeek on to discuss the topic and get her feelings as a trans woman (and fellow superhero fan), on how these different characters were handled.

One slight correction. I referred to Danny the Street as gender-fluid in the show. I meant to say non-binary. My apologies for the mix-up in terms.

Really? I am?

Close your jaw, Wally…

If you know who the one on the right is, you also know this is a bittersweet ending for Wanda.

Look at that castle. Is this Dannyland?

With a few exceptions, comic book romances rarely end well. This is no exception.

Neither is this…

Yay! An exception!

Anyone else distracted by the cat in the last panel? Just me? Okay…

To be appearing in a comic near you soon!

Whoops! Forgot one! Thanks for the reminder, Jenny!
