    That's the key isn't it? I like Trevor McCarthy, but he doesn't make me want to pick that book back up.

    • I honestly don't know who'd I'd like to see on the book...everybody pales in comparison to Williams...

      • Dan Didio Discusses DC’s Commitment to “Kathy Kane” At Baltimore Comic Con

        During Baltimore Comic Con Dan Didio discussed his company’s commitment to Batwoman.

        He talked about how they “stand behind the character 100%” the “great Kathy Kane.”

        He referred to the character as Kathy Kane repeatedly.

        You can hear the whole panel here where he also talks about how the Batfamily as unhappy as an editorial mandate.

        The thing is is that the character is not named Kathy Kane. Kathy Kane was the Silver Age Batwoman.

        Kate Kane is the Batwoman currently in the new 52.

        Just say’n.

        Also he said that Marc Andreyko is starting with issue #25 which was solicited as:

        BATWOMAN #25
        Written by J.H. WILLIAMS III and W. HADEN BLACKMAN
        Art by TREVOR McCARTHY and JEREMY HAUN
        Cover by J.H. WILLIAMS III
        1:25 B&W Variant cover by J.H. WILLIAMS III
        On sale NOVEMBER 20 • 32 pg, FC, $2.99 US RATED T+

        Williams and Blackman said their last issue is #26.

        Are they truncating the run or was Didio mistaken?

        • Not surprising. If they're going to bail DC probably wants them gone fast.

          • You can't publically badmouth your employer (even if you are in the right, which we don't know if it is the case here) and expect to continue to work there.

              Probably won't matter (if Btwoman's any indication) since as soon as he tries anything the least bit controversial or Manhunter gets involved with anyone, they'll die and Dido will run the storyline through a blender and print what's left

                      Well, I doubt they purposely did it the week before Suicide Prevention week (and notice it wasn't the week itself). I mean how many people know that or have it marked on the calendar? I know I don't. That's just one of those bad luck things; like preparing a town bonfire and finding out (after all the arrangements are made) that you set it for National Forest Fire Prevention day or something.

                      And as for suicide itself. It's Harley. Her whole schtick is that she's the obsessive girlfriend of a guy who makes mass murder funny. She's not exactly the poster child of PC.

                      • I'm with Space Cop on this one. So should Harley be wearing her old costume while in the bath tub?

                        • Neither. She should be wearing nothing but a smile.

                            • Solid art.

                              While I'd like personally to see him do a few surreal art bits a la the previous pair, I think he should avoid doing so lest he come off negatively to readers for unwanted imitation.
