DC Comics announced on Monday, October 11, 2021, and ‘National Coming Out Day’ that the new Superman is bisexual and will start a relationship with a man in the forthcoming issue of “Superman: Son of Kal-El”.

Also falling on the day we celebrate Christopher Columbus and Indigenous Peoples, President Biden proclaimed Monday as National Coming Out Day for LGBTQ people who are considering openly declaring their sexuality.

“Those who are contemplating coming out: know that you are loved for who you are,” Biden said in the proclamation. “My administration will always have your back, and we will continue fighting for the full measure of equality, dignity, and respect you deserve.”

Biden made history by becoming the first president to recognize Monday alongside Indigenous Peoples’ Day alongside Columbus Day.
