The Encyclopedia of LGBT Superheroes

November 6th, 2009

Despite some advances in gay and lesbian comics — one could make an argument about Batwoman or the Question, or recent developments with Rictor and Shatterstar — it’s a topic that doesn’t always get a lot of in-depth examination. What about the history of other GLBT characters in comics?

Well, we have an answer for you, as our very own Brian Andersen has sent us a link to The A-Z LGBT Comic Book Character Superlist — “an alphabetized listing of over 260 LGBT characters from comic books (including superheros, supervillains and supporting cast characters).”

Right now the profiles are fairly short — but they do also link to articles on Wikipedia, Gay League, and Pink Kryptonite. Give the site a look.
