Kate Kane: Batwoman Appreciation 2023

[Man-Thing]

Also that! I'm still baffled that they cancelled her ongoing during the leadup to her show airing, and then just never started a new one, despite the show lasting four years and multiple crossovers. The fact that all she's had in the comics are the occasional backup story, one-shot issue with someone else's name on the cover, or supporting role in someone else's book for a few issues is frankly criminal.

She's being treated as poorly as Bette.

Not even close. Kate is still appearing fairly regularly, and her mainline appearances have been at least decent. This week was the first time Bette appeared in any comic since 2017, unless I missed something.

Batwoman's got blood on her hands as a familiar enemy rears their head and creates a rift between her and Robin. Do we really know what we're capable of?

Well, I'm worried. I was concerned at last month's solicit for this book, and that hasn't changed.

Do we have an idea who this familiar threat is?

Doesn't seem like it. The main cover has a guy with a bunch of eyes or something:

Yeah and the regular cover for #8 is not out yet it seems.

I guess this is what Nikola Cizmesija’s WIPs were for.

Well, considering Kate only lasted one season on her own show, it's probably for the best they didn't launch an ongoing at the time. Our luck, they would have killed her off and replaced her with Jackie Ryan, or whatever the hell her name was.

Does the art in the book still look like the artist vomited onto the page?

Catching up on the last couple years' worth of comics, looks like Kate was regularly in the pages of Tec from Fear State onwards? Anything noteworthy happen there or was she more of a supporting character?

She had a decent-sized role in "Shadows of the Bat".

Excellent, thanks
