Batwoman?! LET’S GO! I wasn’t expecting that outcome at the end though… now I’m wondering if this is a one-off or if she’s coming back later.

Drop your thoughts below and enjoy the ride!

Batwoman is such an interesting and somewhat convoluted figure in terms of DC history. I’ll try to be concise and make sense of this for you: Batwoman originally debuted in Detective Comics #233 (1956) as Kathy Kane, the one we see in this episode with the red and yellow suit (“Katrina Muldoff” is just an original identity made up for this show, likely to not tarnish Kathy’s name with this more malevolent take, but this is still very much Kathy Kane’s Batwoman). She was part of a wave of characters at the time meant to expand Batman’s roster of supporting characters, but Kathy in particular was created for something very in particular. As I’ve told you elsewhere, the Silver Age was a direct response to try and appease criticisms of delinquency and other social issues made by adults during the Golden Age. In 1954, psychiatrist Fredric Wertham wrote the infamous and controversial book ‘Seduction of the Innocent’, which was a direct attack on the comic industry in general and argued that they were a dangerous influence on children. It became a minor bestseller and parents took it very seriously (this book is what directly lead to the creation of the Comics Code authority and the federal government investigating possible regulation of comics). The book had parts that went after Batman in particular, part of which made allegations of Batman being a homosexual (due to him having a boy “ward”, among other reasons) and trying to push children to it. This sort of allegation was pushed by this book into the 60s, where Adam West’s show was accused of it heavily. This is when we come back to the creation of Kathy Kane in 1956. Kathy, as a character, was created at the time solely to give Batman a love interest in order to combat the ongoing allegations of Batman being a homosexual. That’s it, that’s all. It absolutely blows my mind. Anyway, come 1964, DC editor Julius Schwartz was tasked with removing characters deemed non-essential to the world of Batman, including Bat-Girl (different to Batgirl [Barbara Gordon], Bat-Girl was Bette Kane), Bat-Mite, Ace the Bat-Hound, and Kathy’s Batwoman. After Crisis on Infinite Earths in 1985, Kathy was retroactively made to have never been Batwoman, though she has still made appearances to date. The Batwoman mantle would eventually be taken up by the character Kate Kane in 52 #11 (2006). Kathy Kane and Kane Kane are two distinct characters, and as of post-Crisis, are both family members of Bruce Wayne. Martha Wayne’s maiden name was Kane, and she had three brothers: Nathan, Philip, and Jacob. Kathy was Nathan’s wife, making her Bruce’s aunt, while Kate is the daughter of Jacob, making her Bruce’s cousin. On a side note, the DCAU also had a movie called ‘Mystery of the Batwoman’.

Personally, I never much cared for this episode. But I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Some of batmans rogues gallery have specific court orders. My favorite is the villain Mad Hatter being banned from wearing hats. If batwoman serves her time and parole to prove that she's sane she could be allowed to work under batman. Batman usually gives criminals that have been rehabilitated jobs either working as heroes or working for Bruce Wayne. Plastic man being one example

Ah, Kate Kane is the name I know, iirc. I wasn't aware of Kathy Kane. Cool lore as usual!
