    Re: Looks like some of you guessed it with Huntress (spoilers)

    I do like Helena W and I'm very excited about World's Finest (PG!!), but I'm unhappy that Helena B is gone. Or never existed. I don't like dumping one character to gain another, and it was pretty lousy of DC to do this bait-and-switch. And that means Birds of Prey as we knew it before the reboot never happened, sadface. I know the whole clean slate thing with the DCnU but it still sucks to reread old stuff and think 'yeah, this didn't happen, doesn't mean anything and now Huntress is gone'. So mixed feelings here too.

    i miss a lot of characters that i have fond memories of: archie goodwin and walt simonson's manhunter, duela dent (the joker's daughter, catgirl, scarecrone, the harlequin), --hell i even loved the chronos book.... but i doubt they'll be back in the form i remember them--and it doesn't take away the pleasure of first reading those stories...

    I guess I just have a different approach to enjoying the comics. Sure, I have favorite characters, and I would be sad to see them go. For example, if Hal suddenly weren't around at all anymore, and GL was Kyle/John/Guy/someone new, then I would be bummed out. But my reaction would be more along the lines of "So be it, if these stories with Kyle are excellent, I'll still be psyched about the GL books."

    And like I said, Helena B. is the only Huntress I've ever known. And I was totally convinced that it was her in the mini. But if "World's Finest" is excellent, then I will still enjoy it.

    Unfortunately, it's more like halfway through a storyline starring "Hal", you find out that no, it's really Allen Scott pretending to be Hal.
    Oh, and it's not even the Allen Scott you remember, but a completely re-imagined version.

    Fair enough. How they'd explain Alan feeling up Wonder Woman in "Justice League" I'm not sure.

    Yeah, as much as I'm trying to be positive about the whole Earth-2 thing the whole bait and switch is a slap in the face to fans of Helena B. I don't blame Levitz since he was probably told to do that, and I still plan on buying Worlds' Finest since it sounds like it'll be good, and we could always use more badass female team ups and I already love PG. Though sadly this does dash my hopes for a Huntress/Question team up...

    Hmm, that's an interesting idea, though seeing how a Wayne can pass themselves off as an Italian mob princess is a little odd.

    There was that one mini (Catwoman: When In Rome) that implied that Selina might really be Italian and a daughter of the Falcones, but it was never settled either way. Even then Helena would only be half-Italian.

    True. Actually, didn't Winnick play with the Falcone idea with Selina towards the end of the old DCU?

    I think so. They've implied it on and off for years without really committing either way.
