DARK KNIGHT RISES


ANNA HATHAWAY AS CATWOMAN

TOM HARDY AS BANE




DISCUSS


(For the record, I do not disapprove! I trusted Nolan's casting for the last movie and wasn't disappointed at all. Also, Hathaway looks a lot like Adam Hughes' Selina.)

It's not even a consistent aspect, which is why I can't get angry over it. It was a detail that was only added in the 90s as far as I know, and never used in any origins outside of her own series that I can recall. It was never even brought up in the most recent series.

But isn't denying material that appeared in her own series worse? Gives me chills, especially given how crucial it is for any character's definition within their own series to be acknowledged. Did v.2 directly contrast any of this?

Blame Loeb.

I don't think they did. They just ignored it.

Also, to be entirely fair, I should point out that the Latina mother was really only mentioned in the "Catwoman's crazy and in jail" storyline when Selina's characterization was horribly butchered. That whole era has pretty much been ignored since (which I'm grateful for aside from the race thing).
