I can't believe I didn't see this coming. My first guess was that hey were going to replace Kate Kane with Tim Drake.

Aw, I was kind of rooting for Vanessa Morgan (Toni on Riverdale). Seemed right for the part.

I wonder if she's gonna date Bruce Wayne.

OK I got Batwoman being a relative to Bruce Wayne and she took over the mantle when he isn't there. I mean at least there is a connection there.

Hell there are connections with the others in the Bat Family. I wonder how she will fit in?
I got nothing to say here.

This wouldn't be necessary if they just gave Ruby Rose time to heal from the injury she got while doing her own damn stunt.

I'm not sure if the red wig is going to fool people as well.

I understand there's been some pushback because the new Batwoman is black and a former drug-runner.

I'm pretty sure it's the same character that was in Mystery of the Batwoman.

edit: nm apparently not.

A wig, a full upper-face mask, AND (I think) a voice mod. Better than just a pair of glasses.
