You got proof? And no, parallel and/or alternative universes don't count; gotta be this one

If you read his comments, What morrison said IS correct. The way batman is presented , The concept has several gay overtones. TO my knowlege, this is the first time anyone in the industry has come forward and commented on it.

Granted, he's significantly less gay in the comics, than the burton films.
and he's much less gay in the burton films than the next ones

I read some of the Invisibles. Crazy ____. Grant Morrison is a crazy mofo. Wouldn't matter to me one way or the other if Batman was gay, but I don't see why he (or. . .his concept?) is supposed to be gay while every other superhero, I guess, isn't. Everyone had a young (usually male) sidekick back in the day.

Christian Bale is as straight as you can get,
is all about robin, the gayest comic book character, is because of him that batman gets the bad rep,
robin is Indeed gay, batman isnt.

how is batman portrayed gay?

I'd be more worried about the Marvel gay characters:

Somebody call an adult!!!!

 

[intothevoid]

Like I said, could care less what Grant Morrison thinks or says

If Batman were gay, there'd be no Talia Al Ghul or Selina Kyle or any premise for the character of Poison Ivy.

He couldn't think of a better publicity stunt?

 

[karamazov80]

What would it matter if Batman were gay? You could change Talia to Ra's Jr., then substitute Catman and Poison Oak for their female counterparts.

holy crap


I wouldn't care if Batman was gay or not,
Didn't they make Spiderwoman Gay? at one point? i have a vague memory of seeing something about that, or someone else, I dont know
I barely remember any of that.
but Yeah its not that it matters, it would just change the tone of the story, and that would make people say batman was a child molester too

Bats being a child molester would be incredibly disturbing, and would make him an evil, despicable character. Him being gay would change nothing about my perceptions of him. There was actually a character called Midnighter (member of Authority) that was gay and was pretty strongly inspired by Batman.

the only reason people say that he is already is because of Robin, If batman was actually gay, like, if for some reason now in a comic or something they said that, everyone would freak the hell out,

i just dont see anything gay about him, (Besides Batman and Robin..)
I dont see why would anyone say this

 

[lerath666]

Actualy, no it's not. Here are some sterotypicaly gay things about batman.

He's a diva.
He runs around in a full body black leather/latex bodysuit
He is extremely stylish.
After that' THEN there's robin.

 

[carbo-fation]

So, being stylish makes you gay?

 

[intothevoid]

And wearing spandex makes you gay? Well I guess superheroes are a pretty exclusively gay community then
