OMFG!!!! Batwoman's GAY!!!!!1111!!! This is Hugh!
Edited on Sat Jun-03-06 04:01 PM by Tom Yossarian Joad
DC Comics has introduced the reincarnation of Batwoman with a twist.

She's now gay.

You go, DC!



Holy Rosie O'Donnell Batman, Batwoman is a lesbian!
Robert Paul Reyes

Holy Rosie O'Donnell Batman, Batwoman is a lesbian!

Batwoman made her debut in 1956 and was killed off in 1979. DC Comics is resurrecting the crimefighter, and in an even greater miracle she's a lesbian in her current incarnation.

Batwoman is a leggy, long hair, lean machine in a skin-tight outfit. This lesbian beauty has lipstick and mascara instead of tools in her utility belt, but I still wouldn't give her any guff.

Batwoman will not be holed up in a batcave, when she's not fighting crime, she will be making the rounds of all the nightspots in Gotham City with her doctor girlfriend.

5. That's BATwoman, not CATwoman-2 diff. characters, so you know
Edited on Sat Jun-03-06 04:02 PM by Adenoid_Hynkel
5{ill around. Batwoman is anew character (though a reinvention of an old 60s one) that appears in a news series called 52, which is the story of what happens during a year when superman, batman and wonder woman go missing. she's a fill-in for batman in gotham city

7. What's a "lipstick lesbian"?
This was used as a term for the new Batwoman on an earlier article but have no idea what the term implies.

11. A definition
A "lipstick lesbian" is generally used to refer to a woman who's attracted to other women, but has otherwise typically feminine traits.

12. Wikipedia's got some good stuff:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batgirl
Bat-Girl was retconned out of existence following the Crisis on Infinite Earths. However, even though Bat-Girl never existed in Post-Crisis continuity, a superheroine named Flamebird was introduced who had many similarites to Bat-Girl in her costume, her interest in tennis, her history with Teen Titans West, and perhaps her romantic connection to Robin. Flamebird's real name is similar to that of Bat-Girl's: Mary Elizabeth 'Bette' Kane.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batwoman
After the Crisis on Infinite Earths, the histories of Batwoman and Bat-Girl were heavily retconned. In the new continuity, Kathy Kane existed but apparently Batwoman never had. Bat-Girl never existed either, but a superheroine named Flamebird was introduced who had a somewhat similar costume and almost the same name ("Bette Kane").

14. SHE LOOKS STRAIGHT!
let's see if we can make her look the part:


butch haircut

no makeup

perhaps a trace of facial hair

a crucifix on one ear

no lipstick

combat boots and uniform

a button on her lapel which reads "Sappho lives!"




these accoutrements would be a significant improvement on her!
