    Well Bertinelli is in Arrow at least. Don't watch it but that is better than Cass and Steph... sort of.

    But aside from them things are looking up for Babs and Catwoman. Regardless if you like the story or not Batgirl is selling extremely well and Catwoman is going to join the JLA and probably be a main feature there. So a lot of development heading her way. Tim probably lost more than Dick overall, but they seemed to just reset his character and he will gain back a lot of his history over time, but Dick is in that awkward position of being exactly where he was before Flashpoint except stripped of most of what made him interesting. I mean a lot of that stripped history he used to have is being/going to be retold without him. Not a good position to be in.

    The Helena in Arrow may as well be a different character entirely.

    I suppose you guys are right. I just dont see those characters as significant in terms of history or stature in the business, so their fall was not quite as severe.

    But Im sure their fans wish they had it as good as Dick has it.. which is indeed pretty sad.

    Not a good portrayal I take it then? But I guess it is better than nothing at least.

    Yeah let's just say as a fan of the character, the Arrow portrayal got to the point where I was disappointed they didn't kill her off.

    The arms spikes work for Dick, they need to let him keep those and no red on his neck. Other than that pretty good and yeah the Batwoman cover is pretty kickass.

    With all the talk about who has been hurt most by the reboot, I can't help but feel having Bruce/Batman have the least change to his personal history was a bad decisions in resetting the DC Universe. It makes the frustrations that people have with some characters being de-aged, and earlier in their learning curve feel more unfair, and it makes his character and relationships seem more stagnant. The relaunch could have been a way to make various Bat titles less spinoffs, which could have really shook things up.

    The changes to make Helena Bertenilli an Arrow character vs a Batman one were interesting, but also highlighted that in either incarnation she is kind of a reflection of either Bruce or Ollie, albeit one who suffers because of how she reflects their blind spots.

    Some good stuff in here.

    Batman cover is the best...Capullo rules all and has such a sense of design and iconic imagery. The covers by Fabok, Booth, and McCarthy look really good too. Brett Booth would be a great Nightwing artist.

    Love that Nightwing cover except the Trickster part. Will miss the arm spikes but yeah pretty neat art by Booth. If he's the Nightwing artist then that would be so awesome.
