Batwoman continues to be hilariously bad, and their advertising even knows it and proves people don’t watch.
The most recent episode of Batwoman revealed that Ryan Wilder is closer to Batman than Kate Kane in one respect; they both share a childhood fear of bats. While the roots of Ryan’s fear have yet to be revealed, it is both ironic and fitting that she should take up the mantle of the Bat to protect Gotham City in the Arrowverse.
Ryan’s fear was revealed shortly after she visited Mary Hamilton’s underground clinic and was stunned to find the rich pre-med student working to treat the poor for free. Despite a rocky start, the two women came to bond over their shared hatred of Alice, who was responsible for killing both of their mothers. Coincidentally, it was at that moment that one of Mary’s orderlies brought in the body of Mouse; Alice’s right-hand man, which had apparently been fed upon by several small animals before being found by homeless people in the sewer tunnels under Gotham City.
