LGBT Character of the Week

As promised, eyecandy for the ladies. This week's LGBT Character of the Week is Maggie Sawyer, currently a detective in Gotham City, formerly of the Metropolis Major Crimes Unit. Sawyer was the first lesbian character by a major publisher in a major series. Her first appearance was in Superman #4 - Vol #2 in 1988. Sawyer and her lover, Toby Raines live in Gotham City, along with Sawyer's daughter.

Of course my favourite comics lesbian is none other that Willow Rosenburg (though she was a TV character first). Willow is currently co-starring in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Season 8 series from Dark Horse which is written by series creator, Joss Whedon.

Oh, awesome! I remember Sawyer from the cartoons. Did she ever wear pants?

"Oh Lois, you SO don't want to know!"

Comic of the Week

Review: Stormwatch #1 Stormwatch #1, the first of DC's new 52 to feature LGBT characters (before the reboot, at least) is out to add a new cosmic dimension to the post-Flashpoint universe. There isn't much to be said for our beloved broship yet (though the last page shows a handshake between Apollo and Midnighter and promises a "Big Bang"), but the issue is a great gauge for whether or not you'll want to stick with the series to see the romance purportedly unfold....
