#All her worst appearances have been in batfam comics and its why i dont want to read her n52 appearances

[autisticcassandracain]

I have Opinions about Bette as part of the batfamily and they're all negative but I've never read her post-flashpoint Batwoman appearances so I don't feel entirely qualified to talk about them so I'm just sitting there. Twitching my eye whenever she's referred to as batfam

#My posts #Bette kane #I know i should read her batwom asn appearances but have you considered: I really really dont want to #Anyway. Bette is a Titans gal!! #Like I simply do not think bette works as a batfam character #Unless we're going with pre-crisis bette + batfam but nobody does that so #Like the batfam is all about being moody and broody and dark grittiness #That's not to say ALL batfam stories have to be dark but Gotham's just not a bright place #And Bette is a showgirl. She's an attention whore. #She has no tragic backstory she has no deep personal trauma or heroic motivations #She's here to kick ass make friends and flirt #She just.... doesn't work in the serious 'realistic' dark grittiness of gotham #All her worst appearances have been in batfam comics and its why i dont want to read her n52 appearances #She just fits so much better in LA and wuth the titans than with the batfam #I think she can cameo in batfam comics but only bc she'd be a jarring contrast to them and it'd be funny #I think her ideal batfam dynamic was that one issue of young justice where she and cass teamed up #Just like. Mutual confusion and mild disdain #I want bette to be like 'ugh my gotham cousins are so dramatic' while standing in a spotlight covered in glitter
