Fans Floored After DC Superhero Admits That He Bottomed For A Giant Mutant Shark In New Animated Film

Fans Floored After DC Superhero Admits That He Bottomed For A Giant Mutant Shark In New Animated Film
Warner Bros/DC Entertainment

Viewers were gobsmacked after watching Justice League Dark: Apokolips War—a sci-fi fantasy superhero film produced by Warner Bros. Animation Studios— dropped on Tuesday.

But fans weren't stupefied over the execution of the plot line of the battle against Darkseid to save the planet.


They were speechless after discovering that the animated film included the implication of homosexual cross-species sexuality.

It turns out that superhero John Constantine had a sexual fling with supervillain King Shark—a member of the Suicide Squad who is a giant mutant shark.

In a scene from the adaptation of The Darkseid War and sequel to 2017's Justice League Dark, Constantine and Raven are seen at a seedy underground fight club.

Constantine is dumbfounded when he discovers his "ex" at the club.

Raven spots Harley Quinn standing next to King Shark and comments:

"You and Harley? Gross."

But Constantine recoils from the assumption and quips:

"Do I look mad?"

The cartoon then zooms in on the nefarious King Shark, who acknowledges his past fling with a wink.

Fans have long been frustrated with 2005's Hollywood film Constantine and the eponymous NBC television show that ignored his sexuality.

Constantine is described as a "working class warlock, occult detective and con man" whose canonically-known bisexuality was first established in John Smith's 1992 issue Hellblazer: Counting to Ten when he casually mentioned having ex-girlfriends and ex-boyfriends.

The openly bisexual superhero, who is stationed in London, reprises his role from DC's Legends of Tomorrow, which also didn't "straight-wash" the deadpan character's bisexuality.

After clips of the scene from Apokolips War went viral for its unabashed portrayal of Constantine's sexual past, animation writer and showrunner for the direct-to-video film Mairghread Scott said:

"I can't believe they let me write this."

In a separate tweet, Scott said:

"I am very proud of this moment."

The screenwriter did not expect the fan reaction on Twitter and said she was "expecting to hear from Twitter folks thirsty for tortured, sad, bearded Superman."

But she thought wrong.

"I truly underestimated thirsty monster-f**ker Twitter."

These fans expressed their gratitude and praised Scott for her valiant effort in normalizing kink in animation.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
