Oh cripes, I remember the Green Arrow and Black Canary letter columns. My favorite bit was how O'Neil said "No, having Bruce fight in Dinah's high heels and stockings is totally not okay, but having Dinah fight in them is! This is superhero comics, people! We don't need to think 'man that's a ridiculous costume' even though this series is being pushed as ultra realistic!" . I mean, there were plenty of good writers (Melissa Page and Uncle Elvis!), and plenty of great discussions, but any suggestion that Mike Grell's treatment of Dinah MIGHT not have been great was instantly hushed.
