Originally introduced in the 1950s, Batwoman has gone from a forgotten character to one who is a queer icon and headlined her own TV series. Kate and Kathy Kane are very distinct characters, and this week, we'll be reading stories featuring them both, thanks to a request from Sam Hopper. We see Kathy meet Bat-Mite, Kate's first solo outing and James Tynion IV's run on Detective Comics begin in a story that not just features Kate but Tim Drake, so we all know Matt has feelings about that one.

Batwoman's Publicity Agent (Batman V.1 # 133)

Elegy (Detective Comics V.1 # 854-857)

Rise of the Batmen (Detective Comics V.3 # 934-940)
