While looking around online, I found this quote by Greg Rucka:
Given what I'm told was said at SDCC this past week, I don't imagine you'll see [her] any time soon. The few conversations I've had with DC folk over the past year made it very clear they had no interest in seeing Renee continue, either as the Question or not.
For those of you who don't know, Rucka is the person most associated for turning Renee Montoya into the deep, likable, and popular character that she is today, elevating her through the wonderful 52 event, where she overcame her personal demons and succeeded Vic Sage as the Question, and he is the one who undoubtedly writes her best. I cannot tell you how much this quote p**ses me off. Not at Rucka, of course, but at DC, for apparently having 'no interest in seeing Renee continue'. This just magnifies one of the many problems with this reboot of theirs, throwing away great characters for no damn reason. What makes this doubly mystifying is that they're trying to promote diversity, adding in more LGBT characters and the like, and yet they get rid of arguably the best they had going, next to Batwoman herself. It's things like these that, in spite of all I like about DC, makes me hate them just as much.
