And since the various superhero universes are vastly populated with so many origin stories and storylines, a lot of them just get gay at some point or another, or at least gay-adjacent. Batman and Robin? Batman and a whole lot of other people? As writer Grant Morrison once said, “gayness is built into Batman.”
John Cena’s “Peacemaker”? Fuuuuuuuucking not straight.
It’s just one of those things. There’s not really a place for fundamentalist homophobic Christians in the superhero universe, except maybe as villains. They can watch and read if they want, but they definitely don’t dictate the terms. This is why fundamentalists have their own fake stupid Christian superheroes like “Captain Salvation” and “Bibleman,” who probably isn’t even made out of real Bibles.
Which brings us to Wonder Woman, the real live Wonder Woman, Lynda Carter, a gay icon if there ever was one, literally one of the gayest superhero icons of them all, who had this to say in honor of Pride month:

And can you believe some piece of filth argued with her?
You're right. She's a superhero for bisexuals! https://t.co/G2m7guvmYc https://t.co/MLssq1yYiK

Like they always say, never meet your heroes, because you might start vomiting your weird fundamentalist Christian bigotry at them and they might slap the shit out of you on Twitter!
Our point is that you shouldn’t go bother that random ass who started all this with Lynda Carter, because it is not worth your time. Our other point is that Lynda Carter AKA the Real Wonder Woman is fucking cool.
