“Batwoman” swings back into action.
The coming year will see more LGBT superheroes starring in their own comic books that ever before: Kate Kane, Gotham’s out defender, gets her own comic book again, starting in mid-February.
“There has never been a heroine I have loved more than Batwoman,” says Marguerite Bennett, who will write the new comic. “To be a queer woman and to see a queer woman as not just a part but a pillar of the Bat-family was life changing, inspiring and gave me the courage to pursue this career in comics.”
On the Marvel side, both Iceman and America Chavez (a.k.a. Ms. America) will be getting their own titles in 2017, too.
And on the CW Seed, the networks streaming service, the light-powered superhero will be openly gay in a new online cartoon.
