As Yahoo News notes, Drake first appeared in comics in 1989 and is the third character to assume the role of Batman’s partner Robin. Although the character has been shown dating women before, in the sixth installment of the comic book that dropped Tuesday, it was confirmed that he is also open to dating men. The story ended with Tim saying yes to going on a date with a guy named Bernard Dowd.

Following the big news, fans took to social media to react. One comic fan wrote, “Tim Drake finally coming out is so inspiring, DC never wanted a queer Robin but after years and years of campaigning from writers and fans it finally happened. A big thank you to Meghan Fitzmartin, Belén Ortega and Alejandro Sánchez for making this moment so beautiful ”
