The winner of yesterday’s match of Tim Drake/Red Robin and Conner Kent/Superboy. Today is the last match of the first phase of the tournament. I’ll post details on the next part of the tournament later today.

As a reminder this contest consists of both canon and non-canon couples. The couples were selected by readers of the blog. The top 32 couples out of more than 120 were entered into the tournament. The only rule for the tournament was the couple had to be from DC comics as opposed to television or movies. The inclusion of a couple in the tournament is not an endorsement of that couple. The couples were seeded based on votes. The match-ups were done by an experienced tournament seeder are a result of that seeding. Voting is open until 10PM EST.

And on to  the last match-up.

I try to keep my non-Flash related posts to minimum, but I just felt I had to say something short about Grace/Anissa. Not only are they great, they are ground breaking. It’s rare you get an interracial couple in comics- let alone a lesbian interracial couple- where neither person is white. This might not seem that important, but it is. They’re still going in canon, it’s not implied, or subtext, or hint hint nudge nudge or any of that. It is in canon, it’s a major comic company acknowledging that lesbians don’t have to be skinny white chicks to be interesting. I just hope you might take the time to think about this and vote.
