Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

So DC is on a pretty unending rollercoaster of fail right now (basically, only bringing back Blue Beetle seems to be good), but Marvel is doing something interesting with their Ultimate line. Peter Parker is dead, and the new Spider-Man is black and Hispanic. So, there's that.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Don't read the comments.

(edit: spoilery for the thing that ita spoilerfonted in her post)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

WTF did they do to Zatanna?!?

WTH kind of costume is that?

This is why I don't do superhero comics, I think: because who in their right mind thinks THAT is an appropriate outfit for ANYTHING?

... except maybe pole-dancing, of course.

OMG, Zatanna was already dressed like a sexy tart. She just wasn't dressed trashily.

And I don't think you could even pole dance in that. Too much movement required. It would come right off.

One of the reboot interviews interviewed a Zatanna cosplayer and asked her what she thought about the new costume. Her reply was along the lines of "Zatanna's in that picture?"

Scott Snyder talks about Batman's reboot:

Everything you know and love about him — his rich history, that which makes him Bruce Wayne — stands. I have no interest in getting rid of any of the stories that you adore as fans. Everything that you know happened. Dick, Damien, Tim, and Jason have all been Robin.

STEPH!! For the love of god, Steph!
