Description

Hidden in the history of the DC universe is this gem of a couple, Josiah Power and his partner Rupe. Josiah has gone through a big life change, now metahuman, but wants still to be a lawyer but may be forced to retire because of his "condition".

I love this page because it gives us a couple's intimate moment of discussing what to do next. I have had so many similar discussions with my partner-our plans for the future, I really just loved the how close to home this page was for me.

I am a big fan of Giffen and simply love that his character gives us a powerful gay character.

Hope to see more of him and Rupe in the new 52 !!!

Kudos to Kurt Busiek for writing this page !!!

It's always nice when we can find characters in the comics we read that we can connect to and emapathize with. But owning the actual artwork of those special moments means even more. Congrats.
