Big changes are a-brewin' in the Buffyverse!

Season nine of Joss Whedon's Buffy the Vampire Slayer — a franchise oft-celebrated for empowering young women — will feature a new gay male character.

Buffy and her Scooby Gang were already ahead of the equality curve when compared to most other works from fiction but writer Jane Espenson knows there's more work to do!

After one film, seven years (and over a hundred episodes) of television, and a season and-a-half of comics, we're only now getting a taste of an openly gay male protagonist!!

Hooray for a slightly more accurate representation of real world demographics!!

In another respectable decision from the folks behind the Dark Knight, DC Entertainment has decided to postpone the release of Batman Incorporated #3 in wake of the shootings in Aurora, Colorado.

In an email sent to comic book retailers carrying the issue, the company instructed proprietors to withhold it until August 22nd instead of placing it on the shelves tomorrow as originally scheduled.

Apparently, DC fears that the content could be considered "insensitive" and wrote:

Katie Cassidy should win CW loyalist of the year!!

We mean, really!! Gossip Girl, Supernatural, Melrose Place, and now Green Arrow!?!
