darn it Rucka you don't need trauma to wear the Bat quit telling them that

I'm thinking that part of Kate's origin will involve her being booted out of the army for the DADT policy. Rucka's publically disagreed with it, she's being referred to as an army brat elsewhere, that she views her costume as a uniform, he says she's incredibly comfortable with her sexual identity and that she paid for it, so I'm thinking when she went it, someone asked her if she was a lesbo, and she said "yeah-suckit". When she was discharged, she told Renee, who told Kate that she was being an idiot, and that was just a feather that broke the aching, exhausted, calcium-defied back of their relationship. Anyone else have any ideas?

I'm really glad that he's going to explain the fact that she's wearing the Bat and why Bruce has let her, that the Renee bit will be going up in page count (:D) although that'll reduce the amount of JHW3 art (D:).

If I had a worry, it would be Rucka describing her as a 'succubi' here, but in the preview she seems ... not very succubish? I may have a different definition of the word, but I'd always imagined a succubi as more of a "uses-her-sexuality-as-a-power", which she's not doing. Maybe we'll see it later on, but because it's Rucka I don't have a worry.

And because it's gorgeous and we need legality, have pg 6-7 of 'Tec #854




Also, mad credit to DiDio. This is ridiculously awesome, and according to Rucka he backed the whole thing, and has been adamant about giving the book it's strongest chance (which doesn't alleviate the annoyance that it took 3 years, but still, it's coming NOW and it's gonna be great).
