Did Modern Age Huntress know Batmans secret identity?

Did Modern Age (from Crisis on Infinite Earths to Flashpoint) Huntress know Batman's secret identity?

[adkal]

No, she didn't.

[DLH1970]

It's like Gordon, if she wanted to know she could figure it out. She knew Dick Grayson was Nightwing.

[MajorHoy]

Did Batman ever trust Helena Bertinelli enough to reveal it to her?

Was she ever told his I.D. after Bruce / Batman "died" in R.I.P.?

[Reginleif]

Yes...Batman is her father...she was robin................

They're talking about Bertenelli, from Crisis on Infinite Earths to Flashpoint.

They're talking about Bertenelli, from Crisis on Infinite Earths to Flashpoint.

Well, technically it would be more like from Huntress No. 1 in 1989 to Flashpoint.

(CoIE ended in 1986.)

I didn't think she was ever told. But I wasn't certain. Toward the end it should not have been hard for her to figure it out. Babs is Oracle. Babs was Batgirl. Batgirl was with Nightwing. Babs was with Dick Grayson. ETC. And with the revelation from Power Girl that the Huntress of her universe was Batman's daughter and Bruce Wayne... The eventual discussion with Batman is something we probably wont see. The Batman/Huntress growing relationship was one of the things I enjoyed most of the old universe. I wish she was brought into the family completely before it all went away.

Technically, though that is the Huntress/Robin from Earth 2, so she would have known. Since Batman's history was left in tact, and Huntress said she took the name Bertenelli when she arrived 5 years ago...

Don't...don't mess with the hope some have of her still being around...

That's just...so mean...

We don't know if she posed as Helena B. around Batman, or if she was completely erased from Batman's history, but I'm going with the latter because I know several stories are impossible to do unless she was raised by the mob.

Unfortunately, I'd guess those stories don't exist in her history now. Just like we have to assume specific elements of Blackest Night and Death of Superman have to be different now, with the major storyline still being intact.

I guess you can look at it either way. It's a retcon, as is common in comics. Before Flashpoint, she was Bertinelli, then after Flashpoint, POOF, a flash of light and she's now the Earth 2 Helena.

Especially since PG doesn't quite add up before Flashpoint either. According to World's Finest #1, she and Helena knew from the start they were from another world, etc. But that's certainly not what the pre-Flashpoint PG went through. Two completely different women (to me).

Right, before Flashpoint Huntress didn't know who Batman was. However, Flashpoint rewrote that history, so now she did know because now she is/was a totally different person. And with that in mind, many of her stories still happened, but it was this person behind the mask rather than the original Bertinelli.
