    Default Ra's al Ghul Appreciation 2023.


    What a creation by Dennis O'Neill and Neil Adams. The head of the League of Assassins, his life lived many times over through Lazarus Pits resuscitation. Ra's wanting Bruce Wayne/Batman to be his heir with Talia al Ghul torn between her Dad and Beloved. Damian Wayne/Robin is caught up in this too. Families, eh?

    He's a good guy now, right? He started to feel really guilty about all those innocent people he killed.

    Is Ra's back now or not? I know he appeared in Flashpoint Beyond, but he didn't explain how or why he was back.

    That didn't feel like Ra's.

    Talia should stop being a villain. She was never meant to be one.

    She's pretty far gone at this point.

    Which is bizarre as Poison Ivy is the Ted Bundy of the DC universe and yet she's an antihero.

    It's also bizarre considering how many writers have attempted to establish consent on Bruce's part but fans cling to her as a rapist despite that.

    One has to question why a white character is forgiven her many canon sexual assaults, whose entire modus operandi is rape such as Poison Ivy or even Harley Quinn, and yet a mixed race Asian character is completely unforgivable.

    Care to explain that?

    DC retconned that years ago and even Grant Morrison said that Bruce had lied about that because he tried to justify to himself why he slept with her.
    It's fans who cling to this, not DC.

    And honestly, that tells you a lot about the people to cling to it while they ignore it for white characters...
