She shouldn't be too hard to retrofit. Maybe lesbian Kathy Kane briefly tried out the superhero life as a young woman, decided it wasn't for her and pursued law full time instead. Orange and green Batgirl was her lover and they didn't take the gag very seriously, it was mostly just fun and adventure in that early era when Batman & Robin were fighting on giant typewriters etc. Now somethings happened recently to push her into it again with a new black costume instead of the old yellow. what's wrong with that?

You forgot the part in the middle where she died.

pictured in a recent issue of his run? I haven't followed RIP since Batman 675 so I don't know if it's been established that those old stories are simply hallucinations as suggested, but so far that's 2-0 in favour of Morrison showing a preference for the original Kathy Kane.
Bruce associated with Kate through social circles because they're both wealthy. The Batwoman "cameo" was a hallucination.

The current Batwoman is the only Batwoman to exist in modern DC continuity. The previous Batwoman was erased by COIE.
