Poll: Bat and Cat Tying the Knot. Thoughts?

[Old Man Ollie 1962]

I rather like the idea. I'm a romantic.

[Celgress]

I like the idea. It's something new. Let's see where the story goes.

I'm not against the idea of a married Batman and Catwoman, or exploring the potential of that dynamic, but I also don't think they're heading to the altar for exactly the right reasons.

I'm all for it. The whole "Batman should never be happy!" bit has never sat well with me. Besides which, they were married in the Golden Age/Earth 2.

I could see them stopping the wedding and taking a step back from things. And then something happens, and brings them back together again, then they start to develop a more fully fledged relationship and then later down the line, when they get married, then it's the right reasons and timing. And then that's when you would see mostly everybody on board, including newer or N52 fans that don't really know their history as much.

I could totally see that happening.

Honestly, it's like I have said before. I will begin to believe that DC Comics is taking this seriously when it begins to bleed into the other comics. So far it hasn't so I don't know.

But would I like for it to happen? Sure, why not. All the stuff he does with Justice League and The Trinity, he can still do with having a wife.

And let's be real, Selina is not going to be running around thieving and stealing Cat art if she gets married to Bruce, lol!

I hate "Bat" and "Cat". I hate Tom King's "writing" on Batman.

That said, I would not object to Batman and Catwoman / Bruce & Selina being married. (But, dear lord, let a better writer handle them!)

I’m curious. Who do you think would be a better writer to handle them? No shade to your question, just wondering.

Paul Dini. Ed Brubaker. The late, great, Darwyn Cooke.

Can't use Cooke or Wein. They have passed on

Dini would have Zatanna as the Maid of Honor probably, LOL! He would put Harley as a Bridesmaid, that's for sure.

I read some old JLA stuff and I was SURPRISED that Morrison wrote them as an elderly couple once during his JLA run. Albeit it was an "virtual reality" version of them, I still was surprised.

[godisawesome]

I feel they should go through with the wedding, and then if they want to break it up later, juts have them separate or divorce. It's not like that would be out of character for either of them.

Seconded. While I'm not sure they are doing it for the right reasons I'd still like to see the possibility explored anyway.

Not sure who would be a "better" writer for Batman these days. But I know who I don't want:

Snyder
Tynion
Orlando
Tomasi
Bennett
and definitely not King

Got no problem with King. Synder's a damn fine writer. The rest on your list are pedestrian talent that occasionally rise above mediocrity.

[Talon1load]

Brubaker, Loeb, Tomasi, Snyder, pretty much anyone other than King. Batman just isn’t a character that he gets.
