Batwoman: Skirtlifter Shocker!
The new Batwoman (don’t ask if you don’t know) is coming… and she’s a skirt-lifter! Hmmm…
Kate Kane, in homage to olden days Batwoman Kathy Kane, is described by DC Comics as a ‘buxom lipstick lesbian’ which is a phrase I last heard around 10 years ago. How modern and hip!
“She’s a member of high society and she is gay. But her sexuality is not the main thrust of the character; it’s just another aspect of her personality, one that helps her to determine her choices that she makes as she’s fighting crime in Gotham City… If the character is gay, she might have had different levels of challenges in her life. The fact that she conceals her own sexuality to some of the people around her and to her own family is going to be a bit of a story, so there are going to be secrets within secrets. You’ll also find more and more about who she is as the story is told, and see how it plays against her lifestyle.” So said DC Grand Fromage Dan DiDio. Hurrah!
