52 week Eleven BATWOMAN
Hmmm I dont this is a spoiler .

OK, we all know by now 52 week Eleven is out and so is Batwoman. Some of you know I own a comic store and I tell you if I could have marked up this issue on the shelf I probably could have bought that batmobile I always wanted. Unfortunately, I am somewhat saddened to know the only reason these guys are getting this issue is because Batwoman is a lesbian and I think they expect to see her going down on Montoya. I guess this is just a rant and really I wanted to put in my 2 cents, I hope she (Batwoman) does well and keeps up the good name of the Bat. I await the story line and hope she is written well so her only appeal isnt that she likes girls.

Re: 52 week Eleven BATWOMAN
I have nothing against choices in who you date or whatever, so her lifestyle is cool with me. That said, I hope they don't stereotype her. It was YEARS before you really saw Batman with anyone, so I hope they stick with the code. I love that the suit is Beyond style. But I wish her hair didn't show, but thats just me. Other than that, she can go do whatever she pleases...just please don't stereotype her. Any bridges DC is trying to cross with this could be ruined in a single moment.

Re: 52 week Eleven BATWOMAN
Sexual orientation should be left out of the equation if you ask me.

Re: 52 week Eleven BATWOMAN
Unless she has lesbian superpowers I don't see how it's relevant.
And even if I still bought comics I wouldn't buy it just for that anyway. I personally don't care which way she swings.

This is the first color photo that I've seen, and I must admit to liking it a lot.

Re: 52 week Eleven BATWOMAN
Well if you leave out sexual orientation then you need to leave out Bruce's girls and Nightwing's as well....so forth and so on. If you are equal you have to leave out both. I just hope they don't shove her into an "underwear party" every twenty seconds when they don't do that with the other characters.

Re: 52 week Eleven BATWOMAN
IMO, they didn't play the lesbian angle too much...
the dialogue between her and Montoya in the beginning could have easily been written for any two former lovers of any orientation...
Although I still can't get over Batwoman's heels, lol....
Nice intro... has potential to be both a great and horrible character... it all depends on how they decide to write it...

Re: 52 week Eleven BATWOMAN
They could bring the female Joker (remember her) into the equation.
That would be interesting.

duh, but that wouldn't be "diverse" and "inclusive"
it's got ZERO to do with anything and imho 2 things, a marketing ploy, and social engineering. Neither of those does anything to make the book better (besides the bottom line sales numbers) just another attempt to kick and spit on traditional values and weaken society.
