DC Comics announced Monday that the new Superman, son of Clark Kent y Lois Lane, you will have a loving relationship with a friend.
Jon Kent and his journalist friend Jay Nakamura struck up a friendship in a story that ran in August. But in the comic that will come out next month they will have gone one step further and kiss.
“After a scene where Superman is mentally and physically drained from trying to fight many battles, Jay is there to take care of the man of steel,” DC Comics said in a statement.
The story will appear in the fifth installment of “Son of Kal-El” (Son of Kal-El), which will hit bookstores on November 9.
DC Comics described the new Superman in the text as “bisexual” and titled him “Jon Kent finds his identity.”
“Today, more and more people can identify with the most powerful superhero in comics,” said Tom Taylor, author of the series.
In the volume “Son of Kal-El”, Jon Kent fights against various social injustices, ranging from wildfires to protests against the deportation of refugees.
The coming out of the most famous American superhero comes as more and more books address diversity.
“Aquaman” introduced a black, gay superhero this summer while the last Robin from the Batman comics came out bisexual in August.
