Sep. 5th, 2013 08:41 am Goddamnit. Bad news for Batwoman fans....Williams and Blackman quit Batwoman over DC editorial demands, among them not showing Maggie and Kate actually getting married.
Well, I guess if I bring Kate back she'll be AU like the rest of the DC gals within Milliways.
From Haden Blackman's website:
Unfortunately, in recent months, DC has asked us to alter or completely discard many long-standing storylines in ways that we feel compromise the character and the series. We were told to ditch plans for Killer Croc’s origins; forced to drastically alter the original ending of our current arc, which would have defined Batwoman’s heroic future in bold new ways; and, most crushingly, prohibited from ever showing Kate and Maggie actually getting married. All of these editorial decisions came at the last minute, and always after a year or more of planning and plotting on our end.
We’ve always understood that, as much as we love the character, Batwoman ultimately belongs to DC. However, the eleventh-hour nature of these changes left us frustrated and angry — because they prevent us from telling the best stories we can. So, after a lot of soul-searching, we’ve decided to leave the book after Issue 26.
