And that’s just what happened in the real world. Meanwhile, in Gotham City, a lesbian crimefighter patrols rooftops with her young female sidekick. And in Riverdale, all-American home of perpetual teenager Archie Andrews and his pals, a gay classmate is graduating to his own comic book.

Cool. There are homosexual characters (who have nonstereotypical roles) in television and movies. Comics are a logical progression.
I enjoy seeing changes in media and popular culture over my lifetime. One of the more recent changes that I have seen on television is the KY Yours+Mine commercial with two women (only place I could find it referenced
