DCAU: Superman Would Have Been Raped

[sdp]

That sounds terrible but I'm sure it would've worked ok somehow, if you look at the DCAU plenty of things just don't look right on paper but they made it work. The Terry is the son of Bruce is such a terrible idea and yet when I watch the episode I don't hate it.

I remember reading about this and they made the right decision. While that would've been a cool gag it was at the expense of the character who was great in BTAS but in TNBA he kind of lost his way but redeemed in BB.

It wasn't retooled very well as you can easily see that this is an episode of JL with different voices/a few different characters but it still fits perfectly as the event that took place between JL and JLU. I would count it somewhat canon to the DCAU.

And that's what makes his stories so awesome.

I think 'Cubed is referring to sexual fantasies, not twisted stuff a la Return of the Joker.
Also, I don't know who makes up these thread tags, but they're hilarious.

Also Paul Dini was the one who invented Harley/Ivy's relationship in the 90's and back then it was just because he was obsessed with lesbians and fetish'd their relationship. He had no desire to make their relationship for the LGBT crowd like they do nowadays. I don't even think people knew about gay rights back in the 90's.

It's true. Just as God said, "Let there be light!", and there was light, the idea of gay rights just appeared out of nowhere, right after the '90s. A modern phenomenon!

We didn't exist until the 1990s at all either.

Also true. When the USS Defiant went back in time to prevent the Dominion from wiping us out in the 21st century, Captain Sisko's crew successfully prevented the genocidal destruction of humanity BUT at the cost of introducing the LGBTQ population.

Temporal anomalies are a tricky thing.

And the God said: "Let there be gay rights!"

You do realize that people have sex right? And that most everybody wants to have sex in some way, shape or form. That also applies to fully grown adult superheroes. Wether or not they wear capes, Bruce, Barbara, Dick, Diana, Clark, and the rest are still going to have desires.

What if Batman knocked up superman?! Now that would be a series finale.

I remember this. I first read this on wikipedia in like 2008 or 2009. I absolutely loved the concept. Cause I remember when I first saw the Legacy two parter, I was thinking to myself "OMG Superman and Lashina totally did it!".
