He also had the Joker threatening to kill people unless he exposed his identity as Batman.

i quite liked the fact bruce never saw her again, some characters i feel are just not meant to reoccur.
unlike kyodia-ken, he definitely should have featured more, i thought he was aweome.

I'm not saying she should have reappeared, I just would have liked the events in the film to have been brought up again. Maybe just reference Andrea, without her actually showing up. That's all.
