I think he’s Hayakawa? Very much the straight man to Denji and Power

Yes, that’s my reaction whenever I see Lady Shiva, too

I think there were probably other ways to handle this scene while still keeping this series’ central concept of family at the forefront, by demonstrating Shiva is not that. She is Shiva.

The best thing about James Gunn is that Kevin Smith is no longer the main Celebrity DC Fan

That was Firefly, not Killer Moth

Has any Batman character fallen farther than Killer Moth? This guy was first introduced as Batman’s equal on the side of villainy. Now he mostly hangs out with Firefly, as the guy who DOESN’T have a flamethrower. I’d be mad at Batgirl too.

Tim Drake is a character I don’t really get, unless writers who really care about Tim Drake a lot are behind him. To me, in the Chuck Dixon source text, he’s just your 90s White Boy. But the secondhand roles assigned to him are interesting.

The psychology of Harley and Joker’s relationship is the most fascinating part of it, but we rarely get to see her armed with that experience. Payne pays that off here, unflinching as Joker pulls a gun, knowing exactly what comes next.

When I spoke to CRC Payne for the first time, the most pressing thing I had to ask her was why the only capitulation to status quo compromise- one outdated even then- was relegating Cass and Steph to Orphan and Spoiler. She was working on it.

Disgraceful capitulation tonight. I am ashamed to call you my representative. You represent no one tonight.

Is this related to the Ambrose Bierce Phil Foglio introduced for Stanley and His Monster because he couldn’t even use Willoughby Kipling when he asked for John Constantine

He showed up in Absolute Batman a few issues ago as an EMT. Dick is coming
