| “ | We already have a Batwoman. Where was she last night? Best thing that ever happened to me was the day Mama Cora found me. Second-best thing was the day I found that suit, but I can't help but to feel like that suit found me. This city needs hope, Luke. Hell, we all need it, and I saw it today in the face of a young girl who's been told her entire life that hope doesn't exist. Give me a chance, and I can bring that hope back to Gotham. |
