I guess what I like most about Talia is her dad, and her apparent lack of concern with redemption. Catwoman seems to need to sustain that mystery all on her own (how bad is she?) and I never thought it worked. "I love my evil undead dad, c'mon let's have sex" does.
You're right. He's evil. But you should see him naked. I mean really!

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

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

Is Talia the woman that Bruce married?
IIRC, that whole storyline is no longer in continuity.
"I love my evil undead dad, c'mon let's have sex" does.
Except lately she's been more "I must escape my Evil Undead Dad, even though I still love him. Come, let me serve as your plot device."

Yeah, Tom's link kinda made my eyes roll.
I'm somewhat saddened by some of the clear limits on heroic behaviour in the big names in comics. I mean, in the end, didn't every hero turn heroic in their Elseworlds appearances, even if they didn't quite start out that way?

Is S.H.I.E.L.D. pretty much Homeland Security?
And re: Astounishing - Jean -- whoa -- why is her body in the hands of the alien and the geneticist? Did I MISS how that happened?
Re: Bats, I can see that the Bats story totally leads into War Games, but that was an unsatisfactory ending and are they really indicating the return of an actual grown up Jason?

Sumi, best bet is they're graverobbers.
Just read last week's Robin. I know the writing is looked down upon, but I don't know Steph at all, and only a little Tim. HATE the way Batman and Batgirl are written, though.

Sumi: yep.
