Well, Captain Metropolis and Hooded Justice were gay. Together. For real. Whacha gonna do about it?

Eh, I never saw it in Moore's writing.

Captain Metropolis: Briefly mentioned as having been decapitated in a car accident in 1974. Allusions were made to a relationship with Hooded Justice, which Moore tacitly confirmed in 1988, saying "I wanted to approximate real life as much as possible and that meant giving each of the characters a sexual identity."
The Hooded Justice: Involved in a phony relationship with Sally Jupiter to hide his homosexual involvement with Captain Metropolis, the Hooded Justice disappeared under mysterious circumstances in the early 1950s, presumably murdered by the Comedian, in retaliation for Hooded Justice preventing his former teammate from raping Sally Jupiter years earlier.

Oh, ok, but next time cite your sources, please.

Wikipedia, the universal source. Where else?

Alright, you almost had me, but the Wikipedia thing just doesn't work from where I am (any more, at least).

It's on quite a few more sites than Wiki, though.

Then that's another reason to cite your sources, which I shouldn't have to remind about, again. Goodbye, now.
