When they turned him Gay, they did it in such a natural way, you believed he tortured himself for hiding it for so long, even fearing for what his own kids may feel.
I wasn't a fan of this retcon... it seemed to me like DC went with the "guy who likes to wear jewelry" stereotype when making this decision. If you read the Dr. Mid-nite issue of SECRET ORIGINS from about 30 years ago, Roy Thomas wrote in enough subtext to insinuate that Charles McNider was gay, but the Doc isn't as popular a character to make this a newsworthy act, I guess.
@@astrocitizen that interesting I know there were hunts about Tim drake being gay in Geoff Johns run on Teen Titans. Any other superheroes who might secretly be gay or bisexual?
@@WTSD850 Not of any interest to me. Just wanted to share my feelings on the matter, feeling it was a bad choice and why, and that DC had a readymade character already from its JSA rollcall.
People should remenber more of Alan Scott, he is a great character.
Your words made me cry, that and want to read green lantern 🎉❤
That means a lot to hear. I hope those tears weren't too sorrowful. Thanks for the comment and best wishes to you.

I don't think they explained properly just how it affected his life, maybe they'll do that in the new JSA book
