The last time we mentioned (Way Less Than) One Million Moms, they were whining about having to explain Kevin Keller getting married in Toys R’ Us.
How’d that work out for them? “Life With Archie” #16 sold out, much to the joy and shock of Archie Comics.
So Marvel and DC are probably overjoyed that (Way Less Than) One Million Moms is now soiling their granny panties in fear over Northstar’s impending nuptials and DC making a “prominent” character gay:
“Children do not know what straight, homosexual, or coming out of the closet even means, but DC Comics and Marvel are using superheroes to confuse them on this topic to raise questions and awareness of an alternative lifestyle choice. These companies are prompting a premature discussion on sexual orientation.”
We would have thought that whole “struggling against genocide” theme that has overwhelmed the X-Books since “House of M” would be of slightly more concern to parents of young children, but what do we know.
We also like how it’s the job of two major publishing companies to protect these moms from having any sort of awkward conversation. You know, because they gave birth, the world now revolves around them and their needs, and kids ALWAYS wait until you’re ready to ask potentially awkward questions!

Upon discovering the identity of DC’s newly outed hero, a spokesman for one million moms said “Oh, Vibe? Nevermind, then.”
Actually, ten bucks says we’ll see some racism to go with the homophobia if it does turn out to be Vibe. (At this rate, DC’s gonna pull an “Armageddon 2001″ on us and make it Hawk).
Re:hawk That’s my new favorite crack about this whole thing. Thank you
“Ugh, I don’t want to have to educate my children until I can blame their teachers for everything.”
Based on the Facebooks of teachers, that’s a little too accurate to be funny.
Wait, do these broads think KIDS read comics?
They do. Sadly, they do.
