Leslie Thompkins in the DCnU

[Jvan]

I know she's hasn't played much of a role in Batman for the last few years, but she is a very important part of the Bat mythos (we'll just forget about her portrayal in War Games/War Crimes, won't we?). She hasn't been aknowledged as far as I know since the reboot. You think she'll show up or has she been retconned?

So, she is Leslie...?
Thanks very much for the information. Before that, I thought maybe she is the head of CoO.

It was also mentioned that Lincoln March had paid for one of Leslie's clinics in that same issue.

Capullo draws the best Batman family members next to Quitely and Burnham.

In the DCnU, she not only killed Stephanie and then didn't, she also killed Tim, Selina and Bruce, and then didn't. New and improved!

Think she would make a good love interest for Alfred or Bruce

Alfred certainly. To Bruce she's more a motherly figure considering what Bruce is perpetually 32?

Actually thinking about it if Bruce is 32 he must have had Damian at my current age and that's disquieting.

I like how Alfred and Bruce are interchangeable love interests.

Alfred is perpetually sneaking out at night and making out with Catwoman and Poison Ivy. That scene in Catwoman #1/2 was ALL him, secretly.

Alfred and Leslie could be done, sure. But Bruce? Not even the age difference (which is pretty severe), but their relationship as it has been in the past is what would make that pairing quite odd. Leslie has been portrayed acting as a surrogate mother to Bruce as he was growing up without his parents. That is way too Oedipal to me.

I like that. That would be hilarious. I'd love to read that reveal. But not just Selina and Poison Ivy, all of the supermodels and actresses and celebrity beauties that the DC tabloids pair with Bruce, those are all Alfred's former trysts and relationships, not Bruce's.

And every time you think you've been with Nightwing, and he hasn't taken the mask off....

Now you are asking for the impossible. The Batman already regards Leslie as a murderer and wants nothing to do with her.

Not only could it be done, it has been done. I don't have the issues in front of me at the moment, but I recall Devin Grayson's run on Gotham Knights from the early 2000's implied that Leslie and Alfred have had an on again / off again relationship for years, dating back to when Bruce was a child, not long after his parents were killed.

No, he doesn't. I think he was still mad, but that's it.
