People in the comments--lead in the industry dictionary doesn't mean what you think it means. It's about salary and contractual obligations more than anything else, and it doesn't matter how you feel about a character or even how they're written if they're not PAID like a lead.
Why is the left so obsessed with showing the sexuality of its characters? No matter how hard you try to push your agenda, if it's a crappy storyline, no one will watch. Period.
Superhero first sexuality last
Sara Lance,sweetie i'm sorry......
Blocked
Eh hello.......Anissa and Karolina are both lead characters!!! And they are long before Batwoman
not the first
Uhmmm are we forgetting karolina dean 😒...
Pretty average, really. Expected much more & got a flat “mehh”...nothing new here.
Anissa Pierce aka Thunder says hi!
Maybe the first out lesbian superhero lead where the acting is quit cringeworthy. I said what I said.
black lightning says what?
Oh really
there are literally so many lesbian superhero leads um ?
ahhhhhhhhhhh i get it now, this is why ruby rose is batwoman and where are they target audience... very sad.very very very.
You forgot Sara Lance
okay but karolina dean and anissa pierce
ok then... I’ll just leave this here.
Um... Sara Lance? Who has been on the CW shows for YEARS.
Sarah Lance from Arrow / Legends doesn't count because she was only Bi.
*Sara Lance/White Canary has entered the chat*
omg I can’t love RubyRose any more!💕 Ok maybee a little 😏 but ILHSM Already!! 😍❤️🏳️🌈🔥 RubyRoseDaily Batwoman RubyRose LGBTQ TheCW TheCW_PR CWBatwoman DNRCREWx FearRTs LaZy_RTs FameRTR UniversalRTs Pulse_Rts BlazedRTs FlyRts Agile_RTs
I had a feeling she was a lesbian
To me, there can be multiple leads. Most shows have multiple leads, and because of that, I would classify Karolina Dean as an out lesbian superhero lead. The problem is the headline. It needs to say singular lead or solo lead. Without that, Karolina falls under this title too.
lmaooooooi think y’all forgot about miss Karolina Dean (and Anissa in Black Lightning)
Don't do black lightning like that yall
Karolina Dean and Anissa Pierce (both leads) say hi
So you've never seen Black Lightning? Who let y'all write this?
In your double fantasy world, does it really matter who your super hero fucks? Is her power to recreate her self without seed?
Never beating Sara Lance or Alex though
Sara Lance says 'Hello' since 2013
lesbian lead with her name in the title! there are other lesbian superheroes, don't erase them!
Damn near every superhero show has a lesbian superhero 😂. I dead cant name one in the oast 5 years without one
,,,,, ne ways stan sara lance and ava sharpe
Man fuck you Anissa Pierce is on the same network. It’s literally Black Lightning’s 3rd season.
Anissa Pierce says hello. Maybe use different wording such as 'title character' next time.
We just gonna forget about her... ok
Pathetic!
Black TV shows aren’t even on your radar, huh?
Put some Respect on Anissa Pierce’s name please and thank you BlackLightning
Karolina Dean and Anissa Pierce are the first lesbian superhero leads and they have been around for more then year but go ff I guess
Check your FACTS please
Could you stop using LGTBQ+ people to promote your shows ?
I guess thunder on black lightning doesn’t count 🙃. What monkey brain wrote this?
karolina dean exists
this is freaking awesome
.... anyway stan marvel’s runaways
'First out lesbian superhero lead' Ava Sharpe says Hi. Thunder says Hi. Alex Danvers says Hi. XS says Hi.
erm, nope. White Canary. Captain of the Waverider and leader of the Legends
No she isn't
They shouldn't force it if they don't have to. Kara's not going out on dates since season 2, and she's fine.
Are you sure?
Good lord the replies to this are painful. Look up what the word ‘lead’ means people.
First? I don't think so
Oh, that pilot was bad.
That’s what it says in the comic book
Batlesbian
LUCY IN THE SKY NATION... ATTACK!
I won't be watching this. Sad the homosexuality in this ruins it.
BlackLightning Thunder
Here for the comments, though I kind of agree for once
That voiceover is horrible!
The only way it’s groundbreaking is because it’s bringing upon the apocalypse and hell is taking over
So we should see it because it marked off some woke virtual signaling points?
That's your takeaway? Not the plot, writing, storytelling, acting, just the lesbian part? On the Batwoman comic books, they should just write 'lesbian'. What's the synopsis of the show? Lesbian. Might as well change the name to BatLesbian since that's the most important part.
You can tell she's a lesbian by her haircut. That's the haircut of lesbos.
as the saying goes...'get woke...go broke'
Um let’s see, Anissa, Karoline, Ava Sharpe, Nyssa Al Ghul, then we move into bisexual female characters, Sara Lance... I’m just gonna stop there and let you think about that...
Um, have we been sleeping for the past 8 years? Not the first open lesbian super hero!
She's hot 🔥 x
Except Anissa Pierce in Black Lightning!
Not even the first LGBTQ superhero in that particular line of television shows. Salim Akil & co introduced the 1st lesbian superhero to tv in blacklightning season 1 (They're on S03 BTW). Her name is Thunder and EW actually covered her. SMMFH
I really was excited about the new batwoman series but as soon as I started to watch I see two women kissing I was so disappointed
Should have just did Batman or a show about robin hell to this shit
Nahhh it’s just trash
Kill me now
Garbage. Having to get her over by Batman abondoning Gotham. So weak.
Anissa Pierce says hello!
I don’t care about sex orientation bs, but because you want to shove it in my face as part of a Political agenda, well I won’t watch jt not matter how good it may be s&g
I hate how the new superhero movies now have a female version. Just leave it the way it originally was
The peak of the batman story in live action was 'The Dark Night' and I don't see it being surpassed any time soon. Marvel: ENDGAME I choose you! DC: Throws out Batwoman with 2 HP left and a paralysis status effect.
Wrong, the main female/cyborg character from Ghost In The Shell was a lesbian.
Worst opening I’ve ever seen instead of push some agenda why not just stick to the script I’ll never let my kids watch this garbage
SO I AM NOT GAY SO I WILL NOT BE WATCHING
Stupid as can be smfh
You didn't even try looking it up, huh?
Wasn't bad.
Apart from Ruby Rose's cool punk rock look, I thought the Batwoman TV pilot was abysmally bad. For my full opinion, kindly refer to this link:
Karolina Dean say hi
Sara says hey.
Who cares about this shit we just want a good show
So Ruby Rose only likes women but not men
but karolina dean is right there🗿
This is Ruby Rose; did anyone really think she was going to be on this show dating men?
Can y’all please not.
Who would watch this bullshit
Definitely not breaking new ground with it being another shitty adaptation of a great Character and comic
She’s not the first. Black Lightning has an out lesbian and White Canary on Arrow was before that.
Uh... I mean the representation is great, yes, but she ain't the first...
Oh, 'Batwaman' is the FIRST 'lesbian' superhero on TV, huh? Does that White Canary chick on LegendsOfTomorrow on the CW-which apparently stands for Completely Woke-know about THIS?
This is Karolina Dean erasure and I won’t stand for it
Anissa Pierce exists too sooo
That twist ending! Also yay Rachel Skarsten. Guys Karolina isn’t the lead character. She’s one of the main characters. Main and lead are two separate things.
Karolina Dean exists.
LMAO
Terrible Batwoman
So, was this a research failure, or were you just in dire need of lesbian superhero gifs and figured this would be the quickest way to get them?
Please have people who watch superhero media report on them. This thread is full of people smashing this claim. You are professionals, do better.
This doesn’t make it past 1 season
Oh really? That’s interesting.
It could be if hiring Rachel maddow doesn't ruin it
And Hopefully A Conversion TO CHRISTIANITY, ASKING GOD FOR FORGIVENESS of Her sins, AND ACCEPTING JESUS CHRIST AS Her LORD AND SAVIOR BECAUSE She WANTS TO BE BORN AGAIN. JESUS LOVES Her MORE THEN Any female EVER COULD. John 3:3.
You know what I am good, ruby is a shit actress.
Do better! This is so untrue! And she isn’t even the first on her network!
Pathetic
Stunning. brave.
breaking new ground? as in breaking a new low of being one of the worst series out there?
While have representation is wonderful and I will never want to down play that, the CW has had many heroes who were LGBTQ.
no jodan.
QuotedReplies
racism jumped out
Hello to you too.
Anissa Pierce
Anissa says hi
.... Idk, I remember DC losing an entire creative team over her not being able to to get married, and an incredibly bs break up as a result. So I'm a little bit skeptical.
Anissa Pierce would like a word,
karolina dean exists
As everyone has pointed out, you should really amend the headline to say 'titular character' and 'broadcast network'
They couldnt get a real lesbian to play her?
Sounds about white! BlackLightning
Have you seen BlackLightning? Or are you taking liberties with the word 'lead'?
Cringe SJW garbage!
Should have tried to make her likable. Then it would have been something to talk about.
no.
I just screamed Batwoman for my children and all I can say is disgusting and they will never watch it they will never know it exists
27th* you 'woke' frauds
BlackLightning Batwoman
Lovin' it! Batwoman
disappointed but not suprised
Black Lightning is literally on the same damn network. Are you mentally challenged?
Must be good automatically then and better not be critical otherwise youre part of the problem
I hope it's treated as a passive trait, like isn't considered her Defining Trait. And I also hope it has the same romantic drama that straight superheroes often go through.
anissa pierce and karolina dean say hi
Apparently people don't know the difference between title lead character and characters that are a part of an ensemble cast or the title character's daughter. (Lightning.) Legends of tomorrow doesn't count because it's isn't called 'the white canary show.'
I really hope so!!
As friends only?
Not progressive enough ... I want a transgender batwoman !
PC culture is pathetic next batman going to be transgender
AHHHHHHH 💕
it's also having horrible ratings to LOL😂😂😂
shit wasn’t even good
Yawn. When will be getting TV’s first disabled black trans superhero lead?
You guys are also all forgetting White Canary aka Sara Lance from The Legends of Tomorrow
It's also breaking new ground as being the worst show ever
What the fuck?
if she was known as batgirl in the 60s, add 50 years, she'd be batwoman today. sure. a middleaged batwoman but yeah.
RUBY ROSE SO HOT!!🔥
That's why I don't watch movies anymore. I don't take my kids to this FILTH.
Bro, I’m sick of this-
If people tune in just to watch a lesbian... thats sad...
Watching the first episode and it is so meh. Gotham was far superior. How I miss robin lord taylor as penguin. Please do a spinoff netflix with penguin.
Can’t wait to see gay Hulk! Imagine the poundings that guy gives 🔥🔥
Anissa on Blacklighting has something to say about this...........Do your research ffs....
Because that's the MOST important aspect of a show based around a comic book character who dresses up like a giant bat and violently fights crime.
Have you heard of the “Black” super hero show Black Lightening... yeah Thunder is full blown lesbian... but I guess she is only 3/5 super hero 🤷🏾♂️
We want to see super hero action, fight bad guys and villains. That kind of stuff. We don’t need any of that LGBTQ bullshit. I just want to see action, less gay stuff. Like Supergirl, there’s already Supergirl’s earth gay sister. This doesn’t sound like my cup of tea. Batwoman
Um, Karolina Dean and Alyssa Grace anyone?!
this looks like trash. It's going to get low rating
Will anyone over the age of 15 watch?
WHO GIVES A SHIIIIIITTTTTTT. JUST MAKE INTERESTING STORIES
just because shes gay doesnt mean its goooddd
So all she is to you is a lesbian?
gross
Too bad the show sucks.
The disrespect-
The 100?
not only is that not true, it’s obnoxious, because they’re also butchering jewish representation
Will they....scissor?
Karolina Dean and Anissa Pierce say Hi, mfs.
First thoughts: -Feels like Gotham -Stylization is cool -Villains have a fun theme -Overarching theme is intriguing -Needs waaaaay less force-fed narration and flashbacks. Example: Instead of detailing Batman's disappearance via narration, make it part of the bat signal speech.
And it's already something I have no interest in seeing, because they're putting the focus on SJWirrelevancies rather than compelling story. There's a reason I dropped DC's Legends of Tomorrow after six episodes; it was impossible to stomach, even with a decent cast.
I take it that you never watched Runaways...
Um
I recalled she is a Lipstick Lesbian, so this is old news.
✂️
Reading comprehension people. It says LEAD.
It’s not even the first on the CW... tf is this headline?
Just what we need! Thx, won’t watch
perhaps NOT!
Black people cant have anything!!! ‘Thunder’ from BlackLightning is the first lesbian superhero. Put some respect on her name! Why must y’all constant try and take our achievements? blacklightning NafessaWilliams
karolina dean says hi
Uh excuse me did you not forget about Anissa Pierce
.... that no one asked for
DO NOT DISRESPECT ANISSA PIERCE
Um no...
BYE 👋🏻
stan the glowing out lesbian karolina dean from marvel's runaways ✨
She's not the first. Karolina Dean is right here. But with that being said, I'm very excited for this. It's a great step forward!
It’s good, but too bad it’s on the CW!
Not quite
ma’am-
Anissa pierce and Karolina Dean say hi
I think not
Just stop lying because it’s not
I mean 🤔🤔
this is karolina dean erasure she's so gay she glows rainbow and yet yall still manage to forget her smh
THE DISRESPECT
Yes! Who cares
Can't wait
So another series for LGBTX.
🖕
I'll bet she'll have some real great 'in your face' judo moves!
Her utilities belt has to have a batbrator.
😠
people replying have clearly never watched arrow
people rolling their eyes, you don't know what it's like to always see the gay characters neutered in service of the het characters. This was a genuine concern for us who've seen too often gay characters denied relationships cause it would make the het audience uncomfortable.
Great ! A new soap opera but for the LGBT community 👍
Go get them girl!
ah, yes. the typical gay for sweeps plot device. but god forbid she has a steady love interest.
Can’t wait to watch it 🙄
How exciting
I kissed a girl and I liked it.
Wow, that sounds great. Can we watch her brush her teeth and trim her fingernails too?
Sounds like a blockbuster 🙄 Studio’s don’t want to make money anymore.
but will there be scissoring? let’s push that envelope and get some realism in here
ooook..... But I don't want to see this turn into a 'Dawson's Creek' type of thing. She needs a social life but please don't have corny relationship drama simply as pointless filler.
