I'm referring to the fact that in "Omaha the Cat Dancer", suddenly the main characters get into homosexuality, even though they previously showed no such inclinations. In the comic itself, the authors admitted they wanted to please their gay followers, so the homosexual parts were suddenly tacked on to appeal to them. In other words, "Omaha" jumped the shark by sacrificing realism to appeal to a new sector of the audience. (Yes, it is possible for someone to discover homosexual inclinations late in life, but to have a whole bunch of people who know each other do it is clearly ridiculous.)
BTW, I did write a story for this site, "Naughty New Year's", which might appeal to Joseph Howard's desire, but I made it a point not to allow everyone to act too much out of character (e. g. Val only "participates" because she's unconscious.)
Long Tom.
