The world will soon have its first gay superhero. I know, I thought that was Tom Ford, too, but this is the fictional kind. Or rather, the graphic novel kind. (Did I mention going to an estate sale and buying a copy of Suckin' Truckin' Super-studs? Remind me, sometime--it's graphic as hell.) Actually it's the comic book kind.
Stan Lee will unveil his newest creation, high school basketball whiz and closeted crimefighter, Thom Creed, in a series for Showtime, based on Perry Moore's novel, Hero.
The Gay League forums aren't exactly buzzing about this, but maybe it's old news to them. Creed's superpowers include the ability to heal people and an uncanny way with accessories.
