Maybe she's considered toxic because her fans are batshit insane and are literally more trouble than they're worth?

I agree, young males that worship female teenage superheros have real problems.

Oh for sure, but usually in comics that means one thing: $$$ from gullible fuckwits that'll buy anything with her in it. They bought Adam Beechen's garbage didn't they?

Yes. Yes they are!

(I know what you're hinting at here, but I think it's clear to say I'm a well adjusted popular young man who hasn't bought a comic for over a year, whereas many of Stephanie's fans have proven themselves to be socially inept)

Morrison should announce his intention to write a Steph/Cass/Wally team up book after Batman Inc is over just to see what happens.

Oh, yeah, that's certainly clear.

Actually, her fan base, and those making the most noise, tend to be women.

Which is why those who favor the characters to voice their opinions at long last. To continue to strike at this now open wound.

This. I honestly cannot think of a more widely hated fanbase within the comic community than hers.

Is it? The only reason it's widely hated is because DC itself hates the character. What are these fans supposed to do? Curl up and just go along with it? No, they should be vocal. If boring Barry Allen and Hal Jordan were given the main roles that they have in the New DC so should the characters DC has turn their backs toward. You know the ones that could bring in new fans.

Has the female Doctor Light showed up in the new DCU yet?

If the answer is no, then they are probably declaring any characters Herald likes as toxic.

Just because a few DC fanbots are trying to ingratiate themselves with Didio does not mean her fanbase is 'widely hated.'

No but they made Katana more buxom. So... why would they do that yet appease Herald's other interest?

Suck it up and deal with it? She doesn't belong to you, and you aren't entitled to more stories with her no matter how much you complain

kinda, yeah. Unfortunately that's how it works. Obnoxious, vocal fans can ruin the perception of a fandom.
