Sasha was a fantastic character. I loved how competent she was and the way she took everything in stride as she learned about Bruce's other side was compelling. I wasn't a fan of her going full costume but that was an excellent bait-and-switch for Murderer/Fugitive.
I still think Bruce leading her on was an incredibly shitty thing for him to have done to protect himself.
I was hoping she was the kind of character Bendis would bring back in his Checkmate but I got Kate Spencer's Manhunter so I guess I can't be greedy. I'll echo that more Checkmate with Rucka would be great.

"Has Sariel summoned you here, Azrael? Have you come to witness the miracle of your brethren arriving on Earth?"
"I WILL MIX THE ASHES OF YOUR BONES WITH SALT AND USE THEM TO ENSURE THE EARTH THE TEMPLARS TILLED NEVER BEARS FRUIT AGAIN!"
"*sigh* I hoped it was for the miracle."
Dan Watters' Azrael was incredible, a constant delight and perhaps too good for this world (but not the Forth). For the love of St. Dumas, DC, give us more!!!

She was a really great character. One of the very first comics I remember reading at the library was her issue in jail as part of Bruce Wayne: Murderer - intensely vivid stuff - Tec 767.

Nope, she wasn't. Just someone looking like her. My mistake. I still liked the issue (trade) a lot. Originally Posted by millernumber1

Awesome! It was a really good run. Still bummed it was cut short, even though I liked what Cloonan and Conrad are doing. Originally Posted by batnbreakfast
