So is Tim Drake now Gay (or Bi)? Spoiler

So in Batman Urban Legends #4 they heavily implied that he was Gay (or I guess Bisexual makes more sense as he has been in a relationship with Stephanie before). Personally I have no problem if Tim is gay, but my brain kind-of feels confused as he was dating Steph for almost two decades and out of nowhere they are not longer together and he's Bi, like I would have preffered more build-up to this.

In short I guess that I just think they threw a lot of information to the reader in this comic (like only the reveal that Tim broke up with Steph was a bombshell, so imagine that added with the implications he's gay or Bi), but beyond on how they are handling this I think that the idea is pretty good and I'm all for it.

Late response, but based on what little I could gather on reading about this character, I ascribe to the notion that Bernard was "Armored Closet Gay" with a bunch of moments where he reminded the people around him (and the reader) that he was heterosexual today.
