But he'd only be able to travel as far back in time as the point at which the internet was invented.

Gayness is built into Batman. I’m not using gay in the pejorative sense, but Batman is very, very gay. There’s just no denying it. Obviously as a fictional character he’s intended to be heterosexual, but the basis of the whole concept is utterly gay. I think that’s why people like it. All these women fancy him and they all wear fetish clothes and jump around rooftops to get to him. He doesn’t care—he’s more interested in hanging out with the old guy and the kid.


Reading is Fundamental!

He's not saying that the character is gay, he's saying that the idea of Batman (and by extension, the whole man/boy sidekick love thing) is gay.

Oh, and that we're all gay because we like to read about guys in tights who put young boys in tights and have exciting adventures with them.

Morrison needs to write Wonder Woman. He'd bring back the bondage and sex. Hot lesbian sex.

I wish 'geniuses' could write stories with existing characters without bringing sex into it.

I believe that's already in the cards once Morrison is done with Batman and Azzarello's through with Wonder Woman.
