Shazam’s a 10 year old boy, so I REALLY hope that was a joke.

My money’s on Atom, he’s only just edged out of Original 7 and Ryan Choi is just the right balance between mainstream and obscure

How can it not be Tim Drake?

He got over the death of his ‘girlfriend’ in the blink of an eye and spent a year trying to clone dead Superboy. And while he’s had girls thrown at him all the time he’s constantly showing no interest, rather wanting to play with Superboy or Impulse.

Please don’t let it be Dick, Tim, Wally or Kyle. Dandy has already treated Kyle & Wally fans like me with enough crap.

Whatever title the character is in, I will drop it.

DC is just doing this for the controversy. New 52 is selling well, and with this news people will be flocking to find out who is gay. Keep those books selling.

I think they are being careless may be sending kids the wrong message. There is enough peer pressure going on. These days the youth does not need anything else to give them ideas. They may not understand yet. Beside are sale slumping maybe they put out one too many lousy stories. More action please and less damn drama.

It’ll be a disappointment but I think (as someone else mentioned) Mr Terrific. Semi high profile already a minority, no movie or other media stake seems edgy but in reality a nobody. Unless it’s one of the Original 7 it’s a cheap cop out by DC….

It would be a cool spin if it was a villian.

Lex Luthor attacking Superman all these years was just a device to get his attention.

and don’t get me started on what the Joker might be up to.

Likely not Cyborg, as he can’t really act on it and would therefore be criticized.

Kyle Rayner GL does seem like a logical pick, but then it’s the typical “sensitive artist type” choice. I think Hawkman would be a good choice, in terms of going against “type” (not my personal thoughts…but c’mon, Bunker?). A good opportunity to add this facet to a character instead of defining him by it, as it seems to happen sometimes.

I say Alfred.

Well, they keep saying “prominent” in all their press releases, so…I’m really hoping it’s NOT Nightwing or any of the Robins, if only because that’s a really old joke and was in poor taste to boot. We know it’s a guy, because they already have a lesbian character (Batwoman), and they keep saying it’s a guy (so it’s not Wonder Woman or Donna Troy, folks, sorry)…my guess is it’s either Green Lantern (Hal Jordan), or the Flash. Or possibly Cyborg, given his new prominence.

Why do DC just keep not carrying a damn about the fans. Seriously first new Hawkgirl and now this. It’s a vibe I don’t care was throw character from a bad era of jla. If it’s more important then I care.

It’s going to be Vibe. He was in that gatefold image from the Free Comic Book Day issue. And Geoff Johns has said how Vibe will be in an upcoming Justice League storyline coming out soon. Plus he’s Vibe.

Gay androids… I guess the whole nature versus nurture thing becomes a mote point there…

I’ve been hoping Barry Allen comes out of the closet since the relaunch, but I doubt DC would be willing to have one of their Big 7 be gay.

Wally West as Barry Allen’s gay friend who gets his powers. (I’m kidding really. It’d be a terrible story but given the way DC has treated Wally recently…)

By: Robin

Robin — Mon, 21 May 2012 17:35:33 +0000

my guess: Mr. Terrific.
