Welcome to THE LIST DISCUSSION BOARDS

Hi, everyone,

Welcome to the discussion boards for the list, "Who Cares about the Death of a Gay Superhero?" Boy, do I love comic book fans. We are rabid in our appreciation and opinions. It's one of the things that makes the genre so special. My catalogue of GLBT superheroes and villians in comic books over the years turned out to have some very interesting effects. Many welcomed and praised it. Others have been great in pointing out some of the innacuracies and oversights. I want to invite everyone to particpate: this is our list. I wrote it subjectively, but I'd rather maintain it as an accurate document with the sincere hope that things will get better. I do understand that bad things happen to all comic book characters -- gay or straight, male of female, black or white. But I still pose the question: are there enough positive representations of GLBT superheroes to balance out the negative ones?

Please help us keep the list updated. All thoughts are welcome and appreciated!

Aim high!

Perry
