Batman gay comic

Several characters in the Modern Age Batman comic books are expressly gay, lesbian, or bisexual. [1] The early Golden Age Batman stories were dark and violent, but during the late s and the early s they changed to a softer, friendlier and more exotic style that was considered campy.

Gay subtext managed to insinuate itself into the Dynamic Duo’s dyad from the very start. Freely adapted from The Caped Crusade: Batman and the Rise of Nerd Culture by Glen Weldon, out now from.
