“If I'm creating a new superhero, it shouldn't be any different from other superheroes in terms of the qualities. Obviously the personality can be different. I think traditionally in comics women have tended to be a girlfriend or the daughter of whoever, whether it's even Batgirl as Gordon's daughter, or whatever. There is that relation of the hero, you know, like Superman's cousin, Supergirl. And that's great. It's fantastic to have a link to these amazing characters, but I kind of like the idea of things being something in their own right, which is why I've always loved Wonder Woman.” IfsThinkingKnowsKindIdeasDifferentCharacterTermQualityWonderPersonalityHeroCreatingDaughterRelationFantasticGirlfriendLinksSuperheroCousinWonder WomanSupergirl Author:Mark Millar
“I spoke to Geoff Johns a lot. We went back and forth, and found a way to bring up the best qualities in his personality and psychology and also fill a niche in Gotham that we've never seen. It became about is there a way to really plant this hero in Gotham and say this is someone you haven't seen before - both in terms of who they are as a person and who they are as a hero.” WayPersonsFoundTermQualityPsychologyHavensPersonalityHeroPlantSpokesBack And ForthNicheGotham Author:Scott Snyder
