I agree, Az, and the really sad thing is, there was a time at DCMB, back when the asinine idea was first flirted with, the collective there had a few smart enough to recognize and criticize that. I remember very clearly one of the savvier commentators (a man!) taking exception to the idea that every man and woman who work together are a...

Um, personally, I think it's 'cause she was the only female around....and if Bruce was about to die, why not kiss Wonder Woman? If she kills you for doing it, it's bound to be quicker and less painful than what the JLAtlantis was going to do to him!

But then again, that's what I'd...

You should see the fanboys and girls over at the DC boards desperately trying to justify the Batman Wonderwoman thing - apparently theyre both warriors whom respect each other and that was the best way of showing it as they knew they were about to die.

Said Bat geeks must truly know how it feels to have one's world turned upside down and are now trying to justify it to themselves as much as everyone else.

Hey there, katfairy. I agree with you that both the late animated series and batman beyond never flat out said anything with respect to Barbara or Talia. All they did was make some ambiguous comments letting Confused Silly Twits (CSTs, my new official designation for them) draw whatever farfetched conclusions they wanted.

Being CSTs, they couldn't resist the opportunity to demonstrate, yet again, just how...

Okay, I know this is off-topic, but I couldn't let Bucky03's comment about Batman Beyond pass unchecked. AT NO TIME did the series EVER imply that Barbara was the love of his life. They said the two had a relationship and it ended badly. That's all. If anything, they implied the Demonspawn was the love of his life. Though one of his rare smiles came the one time he mentioned Selina's name....

Okay,...

Chris... As always, great. Bruce's restless about Dick and Selina's reasurances about the fact that she will not leave were my favorite. You know... I'm really in love with Cat-Tails now... I wonder what all this people like me, that keep always waiting for more will do when you get tired of this and throw we all out of the window!

Ahhhhhhhhh. Happy happy. 'Scuse me as I lay around in a sated daze for a while. And of course, now that you gave me what we wanted I want even more. Junkies are so greedy. I loved Bruce's confused irritation at Selina's refusal of a bodyguard. Pattently male.

So I'm glad you read all I had to say, and I may well see you...

Valeria, Hell girl, I don't know what to say. "Thank you SO MUCH" is becoming my byword around here.
You're not alone in that there are at least two of us. I too LOVE these characters, and that's why I write them - if that's what I do, and I'm starting to wonder. It may be that it's them, and not me, who is so damn frustrated with the DC situation they just picked somebody to channel and get their...

Y'know, as a male who generally shares Barbara's views on cars, and who has suffered through far too many "conversations" with motorheads, I could be offended by that whole stereotype if I didn't realise that, like most cliches, it's partially based on fact...

...and that Chris had Selina comment that it's the flip-side of women going shoe shopping...!

I wonder if I'm alone in this. I've been reading Cat-Tales for over a year now and I've come to realize something. I don't actually read any Batman comics, but I've always loved the character. Everytime I tried to check out the actual comics it seemed like the writers were trying their best to drive readers away. The canon characters became caricatures of their real selves. Reading Cat-Tales has rekindled my interest in...

Lo I'm new, I dont follow the comics, since they don't describe the world as it should be (bruce/selina) and go of on wierd tangents.

I would just like to say the Tim Allen comment was brilliant, just brilliant, when i was reading that part of the story I could see the drool as they looked at the car.

I like the idea of having to hide in her closet, or better yet having her send him to look for...

TwoFace, thanks for the kind words.

(What, you say something like that and expect me not to respond?)

All I did was ask what had happened to BlockBuster and the BPD. Now that he's married and Nightwing + Officer Richard Grayson were not there "full-time", I was wondering how BB + BPD would respond. Chris took that question and ran with it, applying her genuis and produced "Loose...
