Batman '89 Digital-First Series Announced

Though I'm hard-pressed to think of why they'd want to include this particular character in this particular universe. If Kathy Kane is to appear in a project like this, then Batman '66 is probably the best home for her.

True. And Kathy wasn't even in continuity anymore when Batman '89 came out.

Will Batman finally turn his head? Will Nicholas Cage be Superman or Scarecrow or both?

Well...not too sure about that. Wasn't it one of those ambiguous things where they pretty much ignored Silver Age stuff until Morrison officially brought it back and made it relevant again?

I mean, there's that photo of the 50's Bat-family, including Kathy, in the Batcave in TKK - then again, TKJ's canonicity itself wasn't 100% assured when it first came out.

Regardless, as a character, Kathy was dead and nowhere on the radar when the '89 movie came out. And tonally she doesn't fit this world at all. Now Kate Kane's Batwoman might be a better fit for this world tonally, but she'd just be an out-of-place anachronistic element.

Kathy was canon to post-Crisis Suicide Squad very early on, as part of Bronze Tiger's backstory. Albeit not as Batwoman.

This looks very, very cool. Didn't Quinones (or someone else) share their pitch for this very thing years ago? Anyway, I'm so game for it.

I wasn't aware of the picture, so sorry, guess I was wrong. I just knew Betty (now Bette - and which way do people pronounce that?) had Bat-Girl (and thus Batwoman) removed from her history.

Ah, I'll admit I've never read Suicide Squad. However good the things I've heard about the early days, I like heroes.

Except for Bruce's 90's haircut fade style all else looks promising.

As someone he killed?

That art looks amazing! But can he turn his neck ?

I hope not. That will be fun if he has to turn his body in the comics too

[Hypestyle]

so will Ra's Al Ghul appear and revive the Joker in a Lazarus Pit?

I don't think we'll be getting that out there with this book...yet.
