Article by Shannon Cochran, appeared in issue Super; published in 2007; filed under Books; tagged activism, comics, heroes, heroins, misogyny, superheroines, violence.

There’s a new Bat in Gotham City. Like Bruce Wayne, she’s a rich socialite by day and a black-clad vigilante at night.

Now, what happens in the next chapter after Ms. Adorably Quirky has found Mr. Right? She manifests new neuroses and fears as she enters the brave new world of motherhood.
