 Hello ladies and gents this is the Viking telling you that today we are talking about

BATWOMAN

Batwoman is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. Katherine Rebecca "Kate" Kane is a wealthy heiress who becomes inspired by the superhero Batman and chooses, like him, to put her wealth and resources towards a campaign to fight crime as a masked vigilante in her home of Gotham City.

This current version of Batwoman was introduced in 2006 in the seventh week of the publisher's year-long 52 weekly comic book. Introduced as Kate Kane, the modern Batwoman began operating in Gotham City in Batman's absence following the events of the company-wide crossover Infinite Crisis (2005). The modern Batwoman is written as being of Jewish descent and as a lesbian. 

During the New 52, it is established that Kate Kane is a cousin of Batman's alter-ego Bruce Wayne being a niece of his mother Martha Wayne. Described as the highest-profile gay superhero to appear in stories published by DC, Batwoman's sexual orientation drew wide media attention following her reintroduction, as well as both praise and criticism from the general public.

The modern character as depicted in comics works relatively independently of Batman, but has gained a considerable profile in recent years, both within the DC Comics publishing schedule and the publisher's fictional universe. She since had several runs in her own eponymous Batwoman monthly comic book and has had stints in the lead role in Detective Comics, the flagship Batman comic book for which DC Comics is named. 

The Kate Kane version of Batwoman was later adapted to the animated film Batman: Bad Blood, voiced by Yvonne Strahovski. Ruby Rose portrayed the character in her live-action debut during the Arrowverse crossover "Elseworlds", later starring in her own television series for the first season and the "Crisis on Infinite Earths" crossover. Javicia Leslie will succeed the role of Batwoman in the second season as original character Ryan Wilder; the character debuted in the official DC Comics canon with a brief appearance in Batgirl #50, though not as Batwoman.
