DC tried to erase the history of the Gay Ghost, a popular superhero om the Goln Age of Comics, by pretendg his old name never existed. The Goln Age hero The Gay Ghost was the subject of a stealth retn by DC Comics that attempted to not only alter his -universe history, but rewre his olr issu as well. For a character butg 1942, the Gay Ghost had que a dark orig story.
Still, DC saw f to change a cril aspect of the Gay Ghost durg reprts: his name. The Gay Ghost first appeared 1942's Sensatn Comics #1. Nazi spi attack Ireland, Charl is killed, and Keh subsequently posss Charl' body to kill the Nazis and n away wh Deborah Wallace to fight crime Ameri as the Gay Ghost.
The Gay Ghost had some problematic story elements - Keh famoly pretend to be Charl stead of reveal his te inty to Deborah Wallace, for one - but his name beme dated wh a as the lloquial meang of the world "gay" changed. The Gay Ghost only appeared semi-regularly until 1945, but years later, reprts were orred by DC (pecially sce Sensatn Comics was an anthology seri that featured Wonr Woman) - and arrived on shelv wh a small change. Language, however, is ever-changg; while DC attempted to mornize the Gay Ghost's name, the ics of the Silver Age were rife wh lloquiums that morn dienc now fd awkward.
