Well, at least he's not a satire of Superman or Batman.
I'm surprised the Justice League doesn't consist of Supes, Bats, Captain Atom, Blue Beetle (or The Question, I guess), Captain Marvel, Spysmasher, Apollo and Midnighter.

Just so long as he doesn't turn out like this:

Which boy will Bunker try to mack on first?
If it was me, I'd pick Roy Harper, but he's too busy banging Starfire these days over in RED HOOD & THE OUTLAWS to re-explore what he did to pay for all that China cat...

I actually liked Extrano when I was a kid ....
talk about *oppression*, that's how starved I was for gay characters.
I still love Northstar despite how hard they have tried to mess him up. He's been a lot of not so great gay stereotypes ... women hating, criminal, and elf ... an elf yes, and i think was dying of AIDS, and then the elves carried him off to elf land.
he's like the Donna Troy of Marvel!
Now he's still cranky but, he has a bf, and teaches part time at Xavier's. (this seems more like the stereotype that i fit ... )
I think it's really hard to do a gay character who just *happens* to fit a stereotype well. Glee manages to, and deal with those characters pretty well but, they have so many gay people and writers etc. associated with that series.
I still think it's kinda soon to be depicting gays that fulfill stereotypes and have it be obvious they're not being made fun of.
... just my 2 cents.
