My guest this week is an old friend. I first met Tim Sheridan about a decade ago, when we were both writers trying to figure out how to make a living doing what we loved. Well, it took some time, but we both figured it out. Today, Tim’s the celebrated writer of major movies and comics, from Justice League to He-Man and Transformers and Batman and Superman. His latest series is Alan Scott: The Green Lantern, which explores the story of a superhero hiding his homosexuality in the 1940s. We’ll have that conversation in a minute.  First, a couple quick reminders, starting with a heads-up that my new video about the rise and fall and resurrection of 1950s heartthrob Tab Hunter is now up on YouTube!  And I hope you’ll join me for weekly livestreams over on Twitch every Sunday afternoon. With Thanksgiving fast approaching, this weekend we’ll be watching a bunch of classic Thanksgiving-themed sitcom episodes. That’s at twitch.tv/mattbaume, Sunday at noon pacific, 3pm eastern. And if you haven’t yet, take a look at my new book about the history of queer characters on American sitcoms, Hi Honey, I’m Homo! — available now wherever books are sold. Go to gaysitcoms.com for details and to get a signed copy.
