DONE! No more! This team is TOO GOOD. And I took it one step FURTHER and added text….and quotes…and a LOGO! I even re-drew Wonder Woman because something was off about the old version. And I went with The Outsiders, because (1) DC doesn’t currently have an Outsiders team (2) Its better than any other ‘old’ team names in DC and (3) I’m lazy about naming things…its happens.
Holy mother of god…. Oh how I need this book in my life.
Also, just as a begging fangirl, have you thought of prints?
I love this.
Despite the typo.
I must be stupid, I’m missing the typo.
There’s a WHAT?! A TYPO!?!? Where…..shit, there it is. *sigh* Fixing it now.
Typo or no, this is rather magnificent.
New Head Canon, read at your own risk of encountering obscure comics knowledge:
This is what happens when Kate finally quits the working for the bastards at the DEO and tries to join Batman, Inc. and Batman is like “You know, ever since I went public with B, Inc. I’m running into the problem that we’re too public. I need the Outsiders again, put a team together.” And she comes back with these ladies and Batman is like “Great!” and privately “Maaaaaaaan now I want to be in the Outsiders. Girls have all the fun…” and then he kicks a pebble.
“Or when I saw Batman in person for the first time, and I realized that it could be anyone under that mask. Even me.”
The greatest thing about this line (part of Kate listing some character defining moments to answer the question posed in the text of the above image) is that the first half of it is one that’s recognizable to any Batman fan. “It could be anyone under that mask” is usually a statement of fear, or of admitting to the unknown, or is uttered by people covering the fact that they’re afraid that there is no someone under the mask, but a something.
Batwoman #0 says that same realization, in the mind of Kate Kane, was an inspiration that showed her who she could be: the Bat. Not a Batgirl, not a Robin, not a protege. She realizes that she could be him. This reframing of these tropes of Batman stories (not to mention the overall events of origin issue #0) plainly states: we refuse to consider Batwoman a lesser knock-off of Batman. She is his equal.
We’re a day late, but it’s never too late to be happy that this part of the origin of Batwoman, at least, has become dated.
This was a picture done for Pixelkitties a few days before her birthday.
