You can tell this person hasn’t read any Batwoman. I mean there some legitimate concerns in there, but they were covered up by a bunch of bullshit.

No kidding. The one possibly legitimate concern I can see is concern over the titillation factor, but considering that Batwoman has a lower instance of pandering than just about any X-Men issue with Greg Land art, it’s a concern that’s proven unjustified. And considering that he then dips into offensive stereotype as the alternative to making a lesbian character conventionally attractive, I’d say he’s lost any benefit of the doubt there.

Fucking concern trolls, man.

Some twit on a message board wrote:

See, I see [Batwoman] as kind of a bad example. She’s a sultry, gothed out sex kitten and I have no delusion that her being a lesbian is about anything else than appealing to male readers. Maybe I’m too cynical. People in comics are always going to be good looking unless they’re evil or “tortured”, so maybe I shouldn’t expect Batwoman to be 300 lbs with a butch haircut. Still, I can’t see her as anything else but nerd bait.

Sometimes the dismissive ignorance is so blatant, I know better than to even waste time engaging, but damn I hate when people spout off on characters they obviously know jack shit about.

Oracles’ Last Supper by Barry Deutsch:

Here’s the line art for the still-ongoing drawing I’m making of “Oracle’s Last Supper,” featuring nearly every female hero of DC’s “Bat” family arranged in a “Last Supper of Christ” pastiche, plus a dog. There are 17 figures in all.

…

It’s still not finished — there will to be two versions, a hand-inked version that will be auctioned for charity as part of Women of Wonder Day, and a computer-colored print — but I kind of like the clean look of the line art.

From left to right, the characters at the table are Katherine Kane (the original 1950s Batwoman), Betty Kane (the original 1950s Batgirl, Katherine’s niece), Robin (Stephanie Brown), Spoiler (Stephanie Brown), Batgirl (Barbara Gordon), Batgirl (Stephanie Brown), Oracle (Barbara Gordon), Batgirl (Cassandra Cain), Batwoman (Kate Kane), Huntress (Helena Wayne), Robin (Carrie Kelly), Black Bat (Cassandra Cain), and Batgirl (Charlotte “Charlie” Gage-Radcliffe, aka Misfit). In the background is Robin (Rochelle Wayne) sitting on a robot dinosaur; Blackbat (Barbara Hardy) on the giant rook; and Robin (Trish Plover) flying near the ceiling. And the dog in the foreground is Ace, the Bat-Hound.

Edwardian Batwoman by *BevisMusson

In every costume drama worth it’s salt set during the Edwardian period there is a rule that there has to be one of the female characters who dresses in mens’ clothes, smokes a cigarette in a holder, has bobbed hair and, even though nothing is said explicitly, is clearly a lesbian.

Naturally in the world of Edwardian Batman that character is Edwardian Batwoman.
