We kinda have that already with his cousin Mara so alternatively she could be used in such a role. I think it would be nice to see Damian try and influence his sister or cousin and try to free them from the league. Could get alot of emotional stories out of it I think.

    My one concern is that writers would turn her good too quickly and you would end up with a situation where you have a second damian in the Batfamily who is a bit redundant.
    Yeah I agree with your concerns I feel it would be better for her to like I said earlier be against the League and have a grudge against Damian for just being recognized by their mother I guess and for her to build or be part of some other group that's as dangerous as the League. I can see her showing up maybe when Damian is older and he's wearing the Batman mantle and maybe he could have a Oliver slash Emiko relationship with her like on Arrow. That way they could drag her redemption out and develop the relationship.

    I do think her and Damian's cousin could be made to fulfil a similiar role. Don't particularly need both of them I feel.

    Though i doubt we will ever see his cousin again so she could probably be replaced.

    No more kids period. Creates too many problems with aging of characters. You know damn well if say Selina and Bruce had a baby, it'd be like 12 in 2 years.

    I mean yes I love Batman but I think it would be good to see him in a story where he's not the focus not entirely and the consequences are long lasting like the League of Assassins being permanently fractured/destroyed or something. Essentially my idea is for it to come out that Talia and Ra's tossed Athanasia aside over Damian when he was too young to remember and for the reason being that they felt Athanasia was inferior or something to Damian maybe she was born crippled, sick, or was born with mental issues that made her a pariah among the League and was locked up from her birth or something but she was still able to gain some knowledge about her family and train over the years.

    Essentially I'm thinking of a Mask of the Phantasm/Hush/Red Hood type story line where some anonymous foe is targeting Ra's, Talia, and Damian (which is how Batman could get involved) using mercanaries and other famous villains as allies/decoys and for the entire arc to be about destroying and torturing the al Ghul family with a rebooted Phantasm as the antagonist. I like Phantasm because I remember a line from Batman Beyond where Bruce says to Ra's that he doesn't fear death but wimpers and that's why I think a grim reaper like foe would really mess with Ra's especially if his empire was collapsing around him and he had no idea who was doing it. At the same time I like the idea of Ra's coming to the realization that he could have had a perfect heir but because of his and Talia's actions said heir wanted nothing to do with him and would rather destroy him and create a new legacy.
    How would she differe from his cousin?

    No, more kids make everything a lot more complicated. Bruce can be a crappy dad to his already existing children, no need to add more to the mix.

    I think most people think Catwoman is the one for him though. She has the longest history with him.

    And she wasn't a true love interest for most of it.

    I didn't even know he had a cousin until people started mentioning her in this thread.

    Remember how Catwomantried to kill Vicki Vale in Detective Comics because Bruce|Batman was getting serious about their relationship? Remember how prior to Hush, Selina wasn't even considered a major love interest outside of Earth 2 by all the official guides and universe encyclopedias?

    Remember how Batman used to be a six figure selling comic prior to Selina being pushed as a OTP and then plummeted in sales once BatCat became the focus?

    Good times.

    I don't think it was so much Bruce and Selina being a couple then it was just a really poorly written run in general.

    She was nothing more than his rooftop romance for a bit. Should've stayed that way. The appeal fell as soon as editorial decided it was her turn to be his OTL.
