Batwoman by Greg Rucka and J.H. Williams by J.H. Williams III, Greg Rucka, Jock
4.0
"...I've found my way to serve."
I know absolutely nothing about Batwoman so I had to read this because I wanted to know what Batwoman was actually like. I got the feeling that the show wasn't the best representation of her character and reading this confirmed that for me. God, that show is so fucking bad and it's a shame because I think Kate is actually a good character, she deserves better than that horrendous shit. It's CW though, I don't know what I expected. I don't think they've ever made anything good in the duration of my lifetime.
The part where Alice reveals who she is to Kate is unintentionally funny to me. Alice, looking right at Kate's face, says: "You have our father's eyes." We then pan to Kate's shocked face...as she's wearing a mask that doesn't reveal her eyes. Now I know Alice would obviously know Kate's eye color since they're twins and she's saying it to fuck with her before she falls but in the context of that moment it doesn't make any sense because Alice can't see Kate's face. I was wondering "How the fuck can you tell, man?" when I first read it.
I love the complaints about how pale she is. Taking a glance at the sketchbook notes in the back shows that was the intent.
"Her skin is literally vampire white porcelain, very little color at all."
