Why's everybody bashing Supergirl? Leave the poor, stupid bimbo alone.
 
You should be telling Supergirl to leave the poor, stupid other superheroes alone. :o
 
...do not mock my dislike of her. That's BS that they can't even write a "teenage girl" correctly. BS.

I'm not taking the opinion of someone who can't spell the word RIGHT...er...right.

The point is that Huntress ROCKS.

Ha, she got over that whole "killing people" thing a long time ago.

And don't get me started on Batman and not killing. Lord knows if he'd knocked off the Joker years ago, alot of people in "DCU" would still be alive. The lack of blood on his hands is an aspect of his superiority, not his morality.
 
It could be argued that Kelly is writing Supergirl exactly how he wants her to be.

that can be pretty much be said about any hero in the DCU hell even in the MU. I also love the fact that you think killing off the joker and almost every villain in the batbooks would be great for sales. matter of fact lets kill all the villains and see how superhero comics would survive. stop grasping at straws.

Well DC could kill them and replace them with more ethnically diverse villains. It's what they've been doing with the heroes,
 
No one is grasping at straws, and neither did I saw kill off all the villians.

I stated ONE VILLIAN, and one of the worst ones.

The rest I could care less about.

A villain is still a villain no matter how you spin it. if he kills joker he might as well kill the rest of his line up to keep them from hurting/killing other people. was'nt that the point you made?(or are you trying to back out of that corner? )and yes you are grasping at straws, trying to blame jokers long existence as a way for batman to feel more superior plus he'll be looked down upon in the entire hero community, when we all know in reality the books sales would drop.
 
I'm not blaming Joker's long existance for Batman's superiority.

I'm blaming Batman's lack of concern with the people the Joker inevitably murders and maims for his superiority. He can wax poetic about his guilt in the aftermath, but he rarely takes pre-emptive steps to prevent it. One step would be killing the Joker.

Most of Batman's line-up does kill people in the quantity the Joker usually does.

Hell, several aren't even of that variety, and are thieves or money-grubbers. They shouldn't be killed.

Let his book sales drop, I don't read it in the first place.

Very few other superheroes deal with criminals like the Joker. Tehy have villians taht are after power/money/other such material sins. No one is on par with the Joker, IMO, for a murder/death/kill ratio. No one.

I think that if Batman killed the Joker, some woudl find it a relief since they'd never have to deal with the SAME REPEATING PLOTLINE AGAIN.

"Joker breaks free, takes hostages/makes plans to kill people/children/Batman".

The same plots repeated for decades. Not only is that unimaginative, it grows tedious.
 
EDIT: Meant to say "Most of Batman's line-up does not kill people in the quantity the Joker usually does.
 
Sorry Coldqueen, anyone who calls Batman overrated cant be taken seriously. Huntress as in Pre crisis is great,(Bruce's daughter). The new one kinda sucks.
 
Can't be friends with some one who thinks Gail is the best ever, and hates batman.
 
I really don't remember the last "Joker takes hostages and plans to kill them" plotline.
 
That's because they rarely ever happen anymore. The Joker's become an enigmatic shadow among Batman's rogues. He pops up once in a blue moon to harass someone, but the last major arc that centered on him was "Soft Targets" from Gotham Central, or arguably Winick's last pre-OYL Red Hood arc. The reason is specifically because he's so overused. They're giving him a few years' rest until someone can come up with a way to bring him back to the fore in a really impressive way, probably right around the time The Dark Knight is about to premiere in theaters.

I think we can count on that.
