No, you're sad and pathetic for hating a character you know nothing about, with several people bordering on homophobic, seeing as the number one complaint is "she's gay."

The number one complaint isn't that she's gay, it's that her only characteristic is that she's gay, she has no personality beyond her sexuality.

You're sad and pathetic for liking a character that you know nothing about, with several people bordering on homophilic, seeing as the only thing defined about her is "she's gay." :P

Which anyone who reads any of the stories with her would know is blatantly false. Her being gay has come up less often than Hawkgirl having a daughter. Whereas her personality is shown repeatedly in the 2007 Holiday special, 52, and Crime Bible.

See above. Please stop acting like you know anything, since as usual all you're doing is proving yourself wrong.

And the Pee Wee Herman style retorts are pretty childish.

I know plenty.
I know this character isn't worth the hype and time expended on her.

And the Pee Wee Herman style retorts are pretty childish.


...says the guy who started calling people "sad and pathetic" because they don't like his pet character.

No, I called you sad and pathetic for judging a character without knowing anything about her, just like I would be if I started calling Dr. Light II a waste of ink with no personality, since that's all I get from the few stories I've read about her.

Unlike you however, I know better than to judge by my limited lack of experience. You obviously do not since you just admitted you know shit about Batwoman beyond your prejudices.

That's probably true, but I'm still right that he's judging a character without actually reading any of her stories.

Probably so but that's no reason to insult him nor is you liking a character he doesn't like a reason to insult you.

You're right. I wasn't meaning to insult him so much as his lack of an informed opinion, and I failed at expressing it properly.

Correction, Winick goes from average to suck.

I still think Gordon Rennie, the guy taking over as head Judge Dredd writer, could do some interesting things with Batman.
