The fat dude is Kevin Smith. Go watch Dogma, I love that film.

I do have a question though, why is it that the Gay community always tries to promote that super hero's such as Superman, Batman, and such are gay?

Because they like big muscly men and they wish those characters were gay? I have to say I've never heard of anyone "promoting" superman et al as gay, although I'd bet that a google for "Superman slash" (with safe search turned off) would yield an awful lot of results.

It might also have something to do with the buttock-hugging tights. And I daresay there are gay men who can identify with the whole secret double-life thing that most superheroes lead. And the fact that although you see superheroes spending a lot of time with hot girls in spandex, they don't seem to get laid all that often. And most of the costumes are, let's face it, a bit camp.

Superman is NOT gay, and while the Adam West version of Batman might be open to interpitation, the most recent Batman movie clearly proves that Batman is not gay. (They got us on Robin though, theres no getting away from that one.)

Go and find yourself a copy of a book called "how to be a superhero" by Mark Leigh and Mike Levine - it is extremely funny, and explores the whole "Boy Wonder" thing quite humourously. Oh hell, here's the amazon link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/156...lance&n=283155
(Not to be confused with "How to be a Superhero" by Dr Metropolis)

Spiderman is also not gay, strange and quite possibly a virgin, but most definatly not gay.

Peter Parker married the offensively out-of proportion Mary-Jane Parker nee Watson (After his first squeeze was thrown to her death off of a suspension bridge by his best friend in a goblin outfit, IIRC), so I very much doubt Spidey's a virgin. Of course, getting married proves nothing these days and some would say he's trying to prove something, marrying a barbie doll like that...

Now Captain America, he is sooooo gay:
