Hi there Gail Simone! I just had a quick question that I hope you don't mind answering. I absolutely love the way you write LGBTQ characters in your work, always have. So I was wondering if we can expect to see any more new wonderful LGBTQ characters appe

Thank you, that's very kind of you!

I put lgbt characters in almost everything I write, and Firestorm and Batgirl are no exceptions. There's a major new character in Batgirl in particular that I don't think we have really seen in mainstream comics, but is well overdue. I can't talk TOO much about them at this point, though, sorry!

And I would love to have Scandal and her wives in the new 52…it will happen, but they have asked us to focus on the new characters for a little while.
