Have it turn out to be Shiva or something.
I would not be at all surprised if they did that. Because then DC could act as if martial arts skill, like archery skill, is genetic.
No. And yes. It's always sudden.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Is Shiva old enough to be Cassie's mother?

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Fanwank of extreme silly: he's just anemic from the veggie lifestyle.
Dear colorists: Connor is not white. Please be reflecting the text now. Thank you!

Speaking of similar names and confusion therein, on amych's recommendation in her LJ, I tried to read Te's fic that was labelled "Connor/Tim." (I know, Superboy is almost always referred to as "Kon," but I didn't know of the existence of this other Connor.) I was so. damn. confused.
Cass and Cassie isn't as bad as Connor and Connor. Didn't the DC writers have a baby-name book?

I thought he adopted her?
It's revealed that he is her Dad in one of the Batgirl issues. Somewhere in the early forties? Maybe?
Is Shiva old enough to be Cassie's mother?
Cass is only in her late teens, and Shiva's in this ageless sort of thirtysomething zone, so yeah.
(Canary would be in that zone, but they can get away with her seeming younger, on account of the whole Pit thing.)
I would not be at all surprised if they did that. Because then DC could act as if martial arts skill, like archery skill, is genetic.
They would. They really, really would.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Although to be fair, these are characters governed by different editors in different departments, who don't interact much.

Kon is Conner with an e.
Connor Hawke, Ollie's son and Roy's sort-of brother, is Connor with an o. You should really read the Boy's Night Out issue of Green Arrow from a few months ago, where Roy takes Connor to a strip club.

No, it's the nocturnal hanging around on rooftops lifestyle, I think -- back in the ashram he was both veggie and ethnically-nonspecific.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

I think Superboy spells his differently-- with a K, and possibly an e. Also, don't forget Arrowette, whose name is Cissie.
The DC writers apparently *have* a baby name book, but it's from the 1950s and someone's taped all the pages outside the Cs together.

Aha! The E--O factor! And I didn't even catch the O. Mostly because I didn't know of Connor-with-an-O's existence.
