NEW YORK, May 31, 2006 (UPI) -- New York's DC Comics is reintroducing Batwoman -- as a lesbian.

DC is putting a twist on the super heroine to further diversify its comic line and put a new spark to its franchise, the New York Daily News reported Wednesday.

"We deal with stories about identities and secret identities," DC Comics Vice President/Executive Editor Dan DiDio told the Daily News. "And we think that a character who is openly gay, yet keeps it a secret from certain members of her own family, has a lot of strong emotional layers."

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I don't even know if she's still Commisioner Gordon's daughter. In any case, it's a real gamble to use a character that's familiar to people through non-dedicated syndications and make it gay.

You'd think that they'd create an original character to do the whole gay superhero thing. The presence of a Batwoman sort of necessitates her interaction with Batman, and having Batwoman being the gay is sort of really lame.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Yeah, he shot her in the spine and took naked pictures of her in an attempt to drive Gordon insane.

Of course it's going to be a new character. Though, there's not much point in her being a Batwoman if there's no real appreciable connection between her and the Batman. Is Batman a part of her origin story? Who knows? Did we mention she is the gay?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Nope. It's that DC is acting like it is that causes the problem.
