Here's some good news for Batwoman fans — just in time for New York Comic Con.

DC Entertainment is launching a new monthly series starring Kate Kane (Batwoman) from writer Marguerite Bennett and artist Steve Epting. The series, Batwoman, will debut in February. The fun starts with a February Rebirth-themed one-shot, with Batwoman #1 to follow in March.

“Batwoman is yet another example of the character depth, richness and diversity present in Gotham City,” said Batman Group Editor Mark Doyle in a statement. “Fans have really responded to her role in Detective Comics, and we all love Kate here in the Bat-office, so that made it an easy choice to return her to a solo series.”

Ahead of writing her series, Bennett will pen a two-issue "Batwoman Begins" story arc in Detective Comics alongside James Tynion IV, beginning in January. The arc will set the stage for Kate Kane's solo series, and center on Batwoman and Batman discovering that the venom used to defeat monsters' corpses during the events of Night of the Monster Men storyline, is being sold as a bioweapon. Bennett and Tynion IV will also co-write the first arc on Batwoman together.

"There has never been a heroine I have loved more than Batwoman," said Bennett in a statement. "Her flaws, her ferocity, her struggle to rise above her own history and find a way to serve the greater good and those she loves—she's always cut me straight to the bone. To be a queer woman and to see a queer woman as not just a part but a pillar of the Bat-family was life changing, inspiring and gave me the courage to pursue this career in comics. The opportunity to add to Kate Kane's story and legacy is both an honor and a sincere dream come true."

For Epting, the series marks his first work for DC in more than 15 years.

>>
>>86779075
It's remarkably mediocre and the way it's overhyped around here is laughable. Even that aside, the only thing that separates Green Lanterns from Humphries' other books is that he's using two characters with barely any appearances under their belts so there's nothing for him to ruin like he did with Uncanny X-force and Star-Lord.

It's still not as good as Our Love is Real, and Our Love is Real is the only genuinely good comic Humphries has ever done.

My instant reaction to hearing Bennett being on this book was similar to a lot of the responses above; however, she really seems to care about the character of Batwoman, and so I will definitely pick up the first arc and then see where it goes.

If it can reach Elegy levels I will be surprised but I'm not ruling it out
>>
I always feel weird about Bennett because I think what she aims at in her comics is potentially interesting, but she goes so hard on it and doesn't seem capable of pulling back and doesn't seem to get much editing so e.g. Angela was terrible, even outside of the panels that get posted, it was all over the place and messy and smirking to itself constantly. Insexts started out as a meandering mess and again, is very self-congratulatory while shying away from really being horrific on-panel.

Animosity has been okay so far. It's got a nice sense of humor and the Bennett-isms have been toned back to be less obnoxious. Josie was exactly what I expected: Bennett loves putting songs she's written in a comic and having their scenes go on for way too long.

I'm not automatically thinking this will be terrible, but I'm hoping it's not another overwritten book with plenty of cut-out characters reliant on a YASS SLAAAAY reaction to get praise. I have this feeling Bennett will write a 10/10 book at some point but she needs to adjust her work to get there, maybe this will be adjusted. She spells things out too blatantly, especially on general points, way too often at the moment.

I really liked Batwoman, and followed her ongoing to its end. I was legitmitely excited when I saw this thread, too, but this has me vey worried.

I would be very sad if Batwoman was turned into another shallow, obnoxious SJW comic. After what her series went through, she really deserves better.

>>86779131
>Her Joker Daughter and Lois one shot were awful.
And her Angela: Queen of Hel is one of the worst comics I've ever read. Not even in the "waaah, she said something vaguely liberal!" sense. Like, take all of the "SJW" shit out of the book and it's STILL fucking horrible. The pacing, plotting, tonal shifts, constant random 4th wall breaking, and warped characterizations for damn near every character were at a level that it's genuinely shocking that she's a professional comic writer because it read like something straight out of a fanfic.

The only not awful comic she's ever written (that didn't have a co-writer bailing her ass out of the fire) is Bombshells, but even then it's not particularly good beyond the blatant Ivy/Harley shipping and inherent fun in the concept. Also Josie and the Pussycats was pretty good, but I'm hesitant to hold it up as an example of her being capable of good work based off of only 1 issue.

She's a top tier QT, but a piss poor writer. The best we can hope for is that the editor reigns in her SJW sensibilities which leaves us with just a badly written Batwoman book with great art (which would hardly be the first time that happened) rather than a badly written batwoman book with great art and constant shitposting fodder. Last thing we need is people turning on Rebirth because of an "unsolicited opinions on israel???" panel instigating rampant shitposting even if it doesn't reflect the rest of the line like what happened with Marvel.
>>
>>86779167
You're gonna have to kill Brett Booth to get his ass off of Titans.
>>
>>86778877
So, she will still be part of Tec? Or will Tynion not write her anymore?
>>
>>86779147
OH FUCKING CHRIST, I completely forgot that she was responsible for that! Forget Joker's Daughter and Angela: Queen of Hel, if ever there was an example of "how to fuck up a character" it's her nubo one-shot.

At least his ongoing played it off like him being an edgelord is the joke, like a parody of 00s heroes the way Lobo was for late-80s/90s heroes.

>f Lobdell can write good comics after rebirth i am sure she can too
Well, first off, Lobdell isn't writing any good comics in Rebirth. Second off, Lobdell has a history of writing good comics here and there. His 90s X-runs were some of the best of that era. Lobdell is a writer whose hit or miss, with mostly misses, but even his worst comics aren't offensively bad. The same can't be said for Bennett, who is nearing Chuck Austen levels of horrible track records. Not as bad as Austen, certainly, but the best we can hope for is "not offensively bad."

She's been pretty solid so far, and there's not a lot to read. Start with 52 and then her 'tec comics run (Pre-Flashpoint), both are amazing, then you have her New52 ongoing with JH Williams, Batman Eternal and current Rebirth 'tec, they're all pretty fun, but nothing special, after JH Williams leaves the book you have some mediocre to bad issues with Andreyko.

Fair. Though when it comes to this kind of industry where they are publishing constantly they can't all be winners. Hope for more as a fan but mediocrity to sell to characterfags is what the companies are trying to get at a bare minimum.

Pic related fucking pisses me off, they're the kind of people who always gets their panties in a twist when someone who who is writing a character doesn't share their same gender, ethnicity, or sexual orientation yet will proudly shill shit just because a lesbian transwoman is behind it. I'm guessing this was the big thing Bennet was teasing about a month (or was it months?) ago.

I thought queer was meant to be offensive, well at least it was 10 year ago.

My understanding is that it was reclaimed a while ago (more like 20 years) and gets used as an umbrella term. It's actually the tumblr types who get upset about it being a former slur.

Fallacies? Discrediting people? Easy there pal, this is a comic book character discussion, it's just sort of obvious that you're a bit new to the hobby, your brainless comparsion to current Marvel sorta showed that.

Start here, issue 1:
http://readcomiconline.to/Comic/52

You don't REALLY need an introduction, but if you have the time to read Infinite Criss it'll definitely help, though that is a whole thing drenched in continuity, and besides that, it just throws you off the deep end in a big space opera with multiverses and all kinds of shit, so for a new reader it can be jarring, so maybe just read the wikipedia summary (I don't want you confusing it with the dead on arrival MOBA, so I'll just link that too).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_Crisis

Enjoy!

but I want more (You)s anon
>>
>>86779784
I can sort of understand that queer had to come back to define all the inbetween sexualities people are coming up with, it's certainly better than using all the donut steel snowflake terms, but people of color is not only useless and old timey, it just sounds fucking wrong.

>>86779792
Here you go, have a (You) to kick off your plebbit addiction.
>>
>>86779784
I don't like it when we know the specific definition (Batwoman is not queer, Batwoman is a lesbian), but it can be useful at times when you're unsure of the specifics. Better than the alphabet soup nonsense.

>>86779816
Yeah I don't like people of color, but I can't really figure out why it bugs me though and queer doesn't since they're both grouping terms. Maybe the perceived publicness (ie skin/hair/etc being generally more obviously observed than romance).
>>
>>86779885

Ditto. And I think "colored people" rolls off the tongue easier.

I fucking despite Bennett as a writer, but it's the truth. At least Bennett know how to carry a book without narration boxes or doing shit like:

>"Hey there, loyal readers, this here is you pal, faggoty Lobo! Sorry, not sorry! I used to be a loyal body-guard to this princess and blablablabla and killied my king blablabla...

They're both shitty writers, but Lobdell has no fucking skill whatsoever. Every issue he wrote in his life is like that. He doesn't know how to tell a story any other way. It's like he's telling the story directly at the reader using the characters as self-inserts.
>>
>>86780589
>worse than Bennett
Not possible.
She has not written one truly good issue despite having numerous series.
The best she's gotten is mediocre Animosty, but everything else she's written is bad.

>>86780605
Lobdell is just a relic from the 90s when most writers wrote like that. He's fine when editorial reigns that in.
>>
>>86780573

Kathy Webb married a fucking KANE, she's related through marriage to THE KANES, not THE WAYNES. That's why it's okay for Bruce to fuck his aunt. Meanwhile Kate is Bruce's cousin by blood, because her father is Martha's brother.

>>
>>86780709

>Perhaps you should revisit old comics. They were very narration-heavy.

YES! In the fucking silver age! Even then the writers knew how to properly use them! Here's an quick example:

SILVER AGE-STYLE NARRATION BOX:

Reed Richards thinking to himself: "Hmm... it seems that Doctor Doom is urinating on Namor as a show of dominance. Intriguing. I bet Sue, that stupid bitch, think this is some sort of fetish. Hah! What a stupid girl!

Reed Richards talking to the Fantastic Four: Gang! We've to stop Doctor Doom from urinating on Namor! Don't mistake yourselves! This is no weird sexual related game, Doom is trying to intimidate Namor into following some new hair brained scheme! Still, this is no way to treat a king!

SCOTT LOBDELL METHOD:

Reed Richards thinking to the readers: Hey, there readers! This is Reed, the most intelligent man in the world. I used to be a mere scientist until... and now here's Doom, pissing on poor Namor, he certainly ins't any model of intelligence... anyway, we got to stop Doom from...

Reeds Richards talking to the Fantastic Four: just a repeat of the above but with less backstory and Reeds feelings on the matter. Also, some quirky jokes. No matter if the jokes fit Reed personality.

See the difference? In the silver age books the characters either thought to themselves or talked to the people around him, but Lobdell doesn't even know how to do that. Lobdell have the characters thinking straight to readers explaining everything that is going on as if we were a part of it. He doesn't know how to do any other way. Every fucking issue. No matter the character. And all his characters end up being full of snark and quirkness. He's like a more shitty Bendis.

Elegy is only good for JH Williams' art. Same with her previous ongoing. No one cared about the character or the book whenever there was an art shift. They had a chance to give her a supernatural angle, but it's all been utterly wasted.

Batman autistic fan here. Let me help ya all settle this Kane family debate.

GRANT MORRISON FAMILY TREE:

Roderick Kane (grandfather) + Elizabeth ????/Kane (grandmother) =
Nathan Kane + Kathy Webb/Kane (Batwoman)
Jacob Kane + Gabi ????/Kane = Kate Kane (Batwoman II) & Beth Kane (Alice).
Martha Kane/Wayne + Thomas Wayne = Bruce Wayne (Batman).
???? + ???? = Betty/Bette Kane (Bat-Girl/Flamebird).

Jacob later remarried with a woman named Catherine Hamilton.
Betty/Bette Kane is a fucking mystery, because nobody knows who her parents are, just that she's related to both Bruce Wayne and Kate Kane by blood as cousin.

NU-52 FAMILY TREE (SCOTT SNYDER + JAMES TYNION IV):

Roderick Kane (grandfather) + Elizabeth ????/Kane (grandmother) =
Philip Kane.
Jacob Kane + Gabi ????/Kane = Kate Kane (Batwoman), Beth Kane (Alice) & Mister Bones.
Martha Kane/Wayne + Thomas Wayne = Thomas Wayne Jr./Lincoln March (Owlman) & Bruce Wayne (Batman).
???? + ???? = Bette Kane (Flamebird/Flamehawk).

Kathy Kane, the first Batwoman, was erased from this time-line thanks to the GRAYSON book, which erased any relations she used to have to the Bat-Family, despite her appearances in the BATMAN, INC second book which was published after the reboot. She's know just some random villain from Spyral.
Bette Kane remains a fucking mystery, because again nobody cleared who her parents are, just that she's related to both Bruce Wayne and Kate Kane by blood as cousin.

Oh, and let me clear this up real quick:

Greg Rucka wanted to have Jacob Kane and Gabbi Kane as middle class people. So after Gabbi's death Jacob would marry big with Catherine Hamilton, who's a rich socialite. That's why Kate is estranged from her father and doesn't like Catherine. She believed that her father sold himself.

Catherine Hamilton, of course, was a referenced to Kathy Kane, the original Batwoman, who before INFINITE CRISIS hadn't existed since the CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS reboot. Greg Rucka didn't wanted or didn't expected to see the original Batwoman brought back.

So you'd have Catherine Hamilton and Bette ???? (Flamebird), who'd be Catherine's niece, this as a reference to both Kathy Kane (Batwoman) and Betty Kane (Bat-Girl). You can see in Rucka's run, more precisely the arc "Cutter", Bette constantly defending her "aunt Cathy" to Kate, while Kate would only put up with Bette but still hate Catherine.
The reason Bette was kept around is because after CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS Bette managed to survive the reboot as a Titans East member known as Flamebird without any reference to her "Bat-Girl" days, which wasn't in continuity anymore.

Of course, Morrison just went fucked all over Rucka's little continuity, leaving both Rucka and J.H. Williams III fucking pissed. Both Rucka and, specially, Williams III did everything they could to ignore Morrison's changes, but eventually other writers, mainly Scott Snyder, picked up on the whole Kate + Bruce are cousins connection.
