Raised by two mothers (both lesbians), America Chavez is not only a lesbian, but she is a Latina lesbian! Although DC may have more representation when it comes to LGBT superheroes, the creators of Miss America Casey and Dragotta really pulled a whammy with America.

America has gained her powers of super strength and flight from living in the Utopian Parallel, which would be threatened by destruction when she was the age of her six. America’s mothers, Amalia and Elena, sacrificed themselves to save their world, by sealing the black holes leading to the Multiverse.

After her parents’ death, she left home and began traveling across different dimensions with the hope of proving herself to be as great of a hero as her mothers were, and adopted her Miss America alias.
