The 25 Awesomest LGBTQ Comic Book Characters

[neo_prodigy]

Recently someone linked me to a 7 Best Gay Characters In Comics list. While the list was solid, I was inspired to compose my own list of the 25 awesomest LGBTQ characters in comic books and/or comic book themed media/adaptations.

Besides being an accomplished published writer, artist who knows his crafts and a lifelong unapologetic rabid comic book

Renee fucking Montoya stole my damn heart in Gotham Central and she was the reason I read 52

Right there with you. I was so excited whenever she popped up in a week of 52 or crossed over with the BOP. *sigh*

Stopped by here due to Gail Simone posting about it -- such an awesome article :) I even found out about some characters I didn't even know about! XD

Great article...

As a hetero male, I don't think I ever consider the impact a gay character could have on someone. I've never needed to look far to find a character "like" me.

Thanks for the insight.

Before Dixon started writing the Outsiders, it was Judd Winnick writing, who has a much better track record for writing LGBTQ characters.
