Why is New York sometimes referred to as "Gotham"?
Does it have anything to do with Batman or not at all? Thank you.

Washington Irving referred to the city as Gotham back in the early 1800's. Something to do with Dutch settlers and an insane asylum or something.

So, No, it has nothing to do with Batman, though Gotham city has everything to do with New York being referred to as Gotham that one time by that dead guy.

In Mike Allred's Red Rocket 7 there are 7 clones, each excelling and interested in
specific areas. 7 was music, 5 is art. While the book follows 7 through his life and the
various musicians he meets, was there ever anything said about 5's life and who he
meets? For example is there a short mention of meeting Andy Warhol or Jack Kirby?

Someone asked me a question and I didnt have a good answer.

Are there any Tony Stark/Bruce Wayne female superheroes? Women who are either trust fund babies or independently wealthy that aids them in crime fighting?

The Wasp, as well. Whenever Tony was broke or on bad terms with the Avengers, the Wasp tended to pick up the slack and handle all their bills.
