Book News: Why Batwoman Cant Get Married

Last week, Batwoman writers J.H. Williams and W. Haden Blackman, saying DC Comics forced them to cancel a gay marriage plot in which Batwoman married her girlfriend. But DC Comics co-publisher Dan DiDio on a panel at Baltimore Comic-Con that the marriage plot wasn't nixed for the reasons you might think. He said Batwoman couldn't get married because "heroes shouldn't have happy personal lives. They are committed to being that person and committed to defending others at the sacrifice of their own personal interests." DiDio added, "Name one other publisher out there who stands behind their gay characters the way we do." DC Comics was fiercely criticized earlier this year for hiring the anti-gay marriage activist Orson Scott Card to write a Superman story.
