Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?

i'm tired of all the LGBT stuff. Let the characters be who they are. Stop trying to force change just to have change as it serves little to no purpose.
Who are they trying to win over anyway? If the LGBT crowd didn't read the books before...they still won't read them now anyway

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

I'm all for making character gay, which I think is better reflective of modern society and could also probably provide for some indepth storylines and interesting character development-even though I haven't read comics in years except for a few downloads. But not sure why it can't be a new character that's introduced as opposed to a retcon. That said, they should stay away from the gimmicky shock choices like Batman (who's been "millionaire playboy" and had/has a thing with Catwoman) or Superman (who was/is married--I don't know). Won't be Wonder Woman since Batwoman is already gay. So I'd toss a guess in for one of the Lanterns. It could also be a villain but that might be counter to the message they are trying to send.

This seems disrespectful to the LGBT community to use Homosexuality as somewhat of a "gimmick" to sell books. DC already has a few gay characters... why not just develop those relationships further, or have this "reveal" happen naturally, instead of making an announcement about it?
"... could happen in a Flash"; that writer thinks he's clever.

Can you imagine? And then, if so, Wertham would pop out of his grave and scream, "See?? I told you so!!"
