Still not accounted for in Future State, and with no word yet on her appearing anywhere else as of yet.
She may still appear in #14 of Batman/Superman (she's been in the last 2 issues), but that would be the end of that guest run.
Haven't seen any writers discussing her anywhere, all the buzz is about Future State, and/or the new characters from Joker War, at the moment.
"So you've come to the end now alive but dead inside."
On the topic of Ryan, DC is sending Batgirl #50 back to the presses for a second printing citing the demand for Ryan’s first appearance. This may encourage DC to use her more in the comics if they don’t already plan to.
I doubt it. Castellucci has said that the last issues of that run basically aren't relevant anymore. And there's no way that issue did Punchline sorts of numbers; I can't find any sales figures for #50 yet, but #49 was less than 40k for its high estimate. I'd be surprised if #50 did much more than 60k for its first run. Not hard to sell out of something there's not a lot of.
And all that's in addition to DC not doing media synergy like Marvel does.

True... I was actually surprised when the preview revealed Ryan's comic debut, as they didn't do previous synergy things like giving Atom an Iron Man style armor, creating a Legends of Tomorrow team, giving Green Arrow and Flash teams like in their shows (GA did add Diggle to the cast and gave Oliver a sister) or having Martian Manhunter take over the DEO.
And that makes me think there are plans for Ryan Wilder in the comics.

They gave New 52 Atom an armor about the time he first came out on TV, they just return him to his original costume in Rebirth. There's no Legends team though.
Another synergy is adding Cat Grant to Supergirl Rebirth with her TV personality. New 52 Cat Grant was kind of an airhead.
So it's kinda random what they synergize or not.

Couple more good things today. 'Tec #1031 was a brief appearance, but continued the notion of Kate and Jason being paired up, as they were on a stakeout together.
Batman/Superman #14 was the more interesting one, where Kate got to basically do wave defense of a horde of robots with just her fists and a slightly upgraded suit. Didn't get to see that fight, unfortunately, but she still got to do it, which was cool. Williamson's writing of her in this arc was... fine, but it got progressively more generic as the story went on. Not horrible, but he could've dug a bit deeper to get her more correct.

I'm not interested in a Batwoman TV show without the. character of Kate.
