They could generate larger sales if they went with a Betty-Veronica bi-curious scenario. Just sayin'.NEW YORK, April 24 (UPI) -- Archie Comic Publications announced it is adding a gay teen to its popular U.S. comic book series.
Kevin Keller -- described as openly gay -- will make his debut at Riverdale High Sept. 1 as part of Veronica Comics No. 202, "Isn't It Bromantic?," the New York publishers announced in a news release.
Archie Comics Editor Victor Gorelick told The Washington Post, "Everyone seems to know where Kevin is coming from except Veronica."
And they don't tell her right away, he added.
"They let her stew in it for a while. But he hangs out with Jughead -- they seem to have a connection as far as food goes," he said.
In a news release announcing the new character, Archie Comics Co-Chief Executive Officer Jon Goldwater said the introduction of Kevin keeps the series "current and inclusive."
"Archie's hometown of Riverdale has always been a safe world for everyone," he said. "It just makes sense to have an openly gay character in Archie comic books."
WTF?

And...
... if these broads are transgendered, they'll pull in sexual deviants like Screwed as well.

You started the thread, Gobbler, and don't stir up the Repugnicans more than they already are.
They're liable to send a pair of kid's toys in to Washington to flush this kind of rank societal shit OUT of America.

So, starting a thread about something...anything...means some large proportion of the board "has their panties in a wad" over it?
Might as well shut this place down right now. Either that or Truman/AP has some kind of panty fetish.
