Hi back! I've seen these points made before about "closeted" superheroes. What interests me is the mainstreaming of the argument, with the implication in the LA Times article that it's dangerous to general success. But, as you said, there are lots of reasons to feel like an outsider, and if pop culture can recognize that the universal appeal includes an appeal to gays & lesbians, all the better.
