Message to all the gay boys who crushed over Robin, the Boy Wonder: the comic book icon has come out of the closet as bisexual.Well, one of them has.
Tim Drake–one of several Robins to fight alongside Batman in the comics–joined the growing ranks of queer crime fighters in the pages of DC Comics this week.
In Batman: Urban Legends #6, which hits shelves August 10, Drake rescues his school friend Bernard from a cult called The Chaos Monsters.
As the two fight alongside one another, Tim swoons over his longtime friend. Bernard also confides to Robin (not knowing that Tim is his true identity) that a mega crush on Tim helped him come to terms with his own sexuality.
