Was it Babs who actually put it in terms of Helena being like Bruce?
Yes, in a way that seemed odd to me, IIRC. Out of the blue, unless there's more I don't know about. Because that could just be some massive projecting. She's got a lot of opinions on Bruce/Dick (none of them sexual!) that have a lot to do with her own frustrations with Bruce, I think. Maybe on the frustrations with Bruce, Heh on the none of it sexuall! (Totally agreed:)
Also, much agreed that I see a lot more in common with Bruce and Babs than Bruce and Helena.
