    The Jewish angle?

    In the comics, Kate Kane has herself been depicted as Jewish. In additional to everything else. Not sure which branch of the faith, mind you...

    I suspect that there is a difference between being "on ignore" and simply being ignored, as some people should be.

    Don't feel too bad about your silly posts. I don't think anyone ignores you.

    Well, that's unsurprising.

    Jacob Kane is antagonistic and occasionally a baddie.

    Sickbay, dammit.
    I'll be glad when the show starts so people can bitch about what's really onscreen. You know, instead of what they think it's about. :crazy:

    Really? From what I’ve read he seems liked a nice guy. Is this a evil New 52 thing?

    I still think the funniest were the homosexuals on Twitter complaining that Ruby Rose wasn’t “gay enough” to play Batwoman. :)

    He's a tough ex-military guy. He's not evil, he just has a different approach that can be at odds with both Kate and Bruce. Which makes him the "baddie" in some storylines.

    ^ There's a difference between being a villain and being an antagonist.

    It’s not really funny. Ruby Rose is bi and genderfluid and this was used to attack her and her identity. There’s a lot of gatekeeping in the LGBTQ community, especially between gay people and bisexual people. Bisexual people are sort of dismissed and mocked with their sexuality being erased depending on the identity of their partner. It’s extremely toxic and harmful to bisexual people. Calling it funny is calling bigotry funny.

    Much like how in Breaking Bad the main antagonist was Walt’s brother in law Hank, a sometimes crude but otherwise decent guy who was a DEA agent and the protagonist was Walt, a meth kingpin who killed multiple people.

    So Batwoman counts as a anti-hero? That's the impression I got. We are suppose to think she is kind of a asshole and sort of a edgelord type but deep down has some good and does care about things for real. I wonder if she will be all in on murder like Oliver Queen was at first and still has to deal with or Batman who sometimes kills and sometimes doesn't depending on which version your going by.

    That would be in keeping with the Bat tradition.

    Is she bi? I thought she was straight up gay.
