This is for those who've read the really cool series of Gotham Central and most specifically issue 6. I'll warn you to leave if you plan on reading this issue, cuz I don't wanna spoil the surprise.
First of all I would like to say that I'm enjoy GCPD Blue very much. It's a very well developed invironment that Ed Brubaker has created. Issue 6 shows us that though Rucka is pretty good Brubaker is way better and it's a little bit of a shock from one to the other. I did like how Nates stardom ended and Renee's begun, like well... a cop show. But anyway my main complaint is about the revelation at the end of #6
WHAT? Ok, c'mon what's with this. Naturally I have no problem with lesbians, and from what I know there's no contradictions in the past, Montaya's been pretty much a career girl. (besides the arguable two-face thing) But I disagree with making her a lesbian. She's always been hardworking, good at her job, tough and maybe a little rough at times, one of Gotham's best cops.
She's always struck me as much a-sexual as a person can be, and this seems like a cheap trick to grab readers. However if it's written well I'll read it cause gotham central is cool.
Naturallly I haven't read every batman comic ever so this may not be the first time this has come up. It may be something that was known by us and not by them, in the book. If so I never saw it.
