Vaguely remember her from the Black Lightning TV series, but while researching her, I discovered the absolute worst superhero costume I’ve ever seen. Thank god she changed.

17. Starman
Mikaal Tomas, the 70s one-issue Starman, brought back eventually in James Robinson’s masterwork 90s Starman series as a tragic and completely beloved (by me) character.
Patreon Reward: Namora
I almost got this confused with Namorita. Two totally different characters. Not real happy with the face. I suck.
16. Robin
Tim Drake, best Robin. Canonically bi in a recent-ish story. Refuse to draw him in any other version of his costume. Best Robin.
15. Wiccan
I’ll be honest, I totally forgot Wiccan (and Hulkling) were a thing. I read the original run of Young Avengers back in the day and loved it, but yeah… Also totally forgot that Wiccan was one of Scarlet Witch’s fake sons. Ah well.
Patreon Reward: Evil Drunk Superman
I have never been more excited for a patron request than when I got “evil drunk Superman from Superman III”.
14. Hercules
Hercules! ‘Nuff Said.
13. Union Jack
Apparently the WWII 2nd version of Union Jack was gay (his lover was the character known as Destroyer. Jokes at your own risk). But I’ll be honest, while researching this, all I wanted to do was go back and re-read Paul Grist’s masterful Jack Staff series.
12. Shatterstar
Not sure whether Shatterstar is bi or gay, but I do remember Rob Liefeld flipping his shit when Peter David put him in a relationship with Rictor in the pages of X-Factor, and that is enough to actually make me like this character now.
11. John Constantine
John is canonically bi, but I’ve always felt he’s more of an “anything that moves” kinda guy, so don’t stand so, don’t stand so close to him. John is still the greatest comic character ever formed and I miss the original Hellblazer a lot.
