The OTP: Clois and DickKory
M/F: See Above once more though for a bonus, I guess Diana Prince x Steve Trevor
M/M: Tim Drake x Bernard Dowd (now if it was Wolfman written Tim and Classic Era Bernard, that'll be truly something imho)
F/F: Perhaps Kate Kane x Renne Montoya or Harlivy
Fav Female: Kory
Fave Male: Clark, Dick is a very close second
Least Fave Female: Maybe Barbara Gordon, though not a bad character in her own right, her recent writing, heck her writing probably ever since 1996 hasn't her too many favors
Least Fav Male: So...SO many candidates so I'll list my top ones; Joker, Superboy Prime and maybe controversially Batman himself, in particular any Batman that's the polar opposite of a nuanced and complex character in favor a quasi fascist and brutal madman who views his allies and friends as soldiers in his wars
Why I joined the fandom: A very long story for me to put into words but it can be traced to my atached to a select bunch of the DCU's characters, their histories and what imagination is put both on their official materials and what can be extracted out for good fan material (whether you consider my completely ridiculous and self indulgent ideas good fan material, I'll leave that to you). ANd all is this really started with a simple video with a simple question...."Who would win in a duel between Superman and Son Goku"
The ask is very much appreciated @sillymanwithocs

365 DC Comics Paper Cut-Out SuperHeroes - One Hero, Every Day, All Year…
June 24th - The Question / Renee Montoya
Renee Montoya had been an officer with the Gotham Police Department. She started off as a beat cop but quickly earned her way up to detective. Montoya was later assigned to the major crimes division where she was partnered with Sargent Harvey Bullock.
Montoya first encountered Batman and his many rogues while she was a uniformed officer and had even more contact following her promotion to Major Crimes. Similar to Commissioner Gordon, Montoya did not see Batman’s vigilantism as an impediment to law enforcement but rather an asset in dealing with the substantial criminal threats the city has had to deal with.
The villain known as Two-Face became obsessed with Montoya, falling under the delusion that the two had fallen in love with each other. The delusion became so severe that Two-Face even proposed marriage to Montoya. The villain did not take well to Montoya’s turning him down, As a cruel retribution, Two-Face publicly ‘outed’ Montoya as a lesbian. Although this did not negatively effect Montoya’s career, it brought havoc down on her family life. Montoya’s parents had been very conventional in their religious beliefs and they refused to accept their daughter’s sexuality, leading to an estrangement that would never reconcile.
After Bullock was promoted to Lieutenant, Montoya was assigned Crispen Allen as her new partner. Allen was murdered by a corrupt investigator named Corrigan and Montoya went to great lengths to bring Corigan to justice; she was able to get him to confess to the murder yet Montoya’s not following proper procedure led to Corrigan’s getting off on a technicality (the murderer was later killed by Crispen Allen’s brother). Enraged over Corrigan’s acquittal, Montoya quit the police department and fell into a deep, alcohol-fueled depression.
Some time thereafter, Montoya was sought out by Vic Sage, the mysterious superhero known as The Question. The Question asked her to assist him on some missions and she begrudgingly agreed. Their partnership ended up working out quite well and Sage divulged to her that he was dying from a terminal form cancer; and was hoping that Montoya might continue on his work as the new Question. It took some convincing, but she ultimately agreed.
The two traveled to Nanda Parbat together where Montoya trained with Sage’s former mentors, Rodor and Richard Dragon. Prior to his death, Sage passed along his equipment to Montoya. This included a series of specialized weapons, his trademark outfit and a gas that can hide her face and temporarily change the color of her hair, thus allowing her to hide her identity while operating as The Question.
She would go on to have numerous adventures as The Question, solving crimes and teaming up with a variety of heroes (including Nightwing, Huntress and Batwoman). Montoya had an affair with Batwoman’s civilian identity, Kate Kane, in the past and ,currently, the two have been flirting with the idea of rekindling this romance.
As The Question, Montoya has acted as an adjunct member of both The Birds of Prey and Batman Inc.
Actress Victoria Cartagena portrayed a version of Renee Montoya in the television series Gotham; whereas Rosie Perez portrayed the character in the movie Harley Quinn and The Birds of Prey. The character’s first appearance was in Batman The Animated Series; her first comic book appearance was in the pages of Batman #475 (1992).

Roy, looking at seven christmas presents on the table: Jeez, Bruce must've performed a miracle to get you to spoil him like this
Jason: Hm? Oh, no, those aren't all for Bruce. One's for him, another's for Alfred and then the others are for my moms
Roy: ... how many moms do you have?
Jason: Uhh five??
Roy: I'm sorry did you just say FIVE?
Jason: Yeah?? Look, that one's for Kate, the other's for Renee, this one's for Harley, then that's for Ivy and then this one is for Selina
Roy, thinking about how he's planning to propose to Jason in like two days: Oh my god I'm going to have six in-laws
Jason: What?
Roy: What?

The fact Birds of Prey is abbreviated to ‘BoP’ is proof all the songs on the soundtrack are absolute bangers

I think my favorite part of Birds of Prey was the opening the ending gave. It made it possible for Harley Quinn to go off again.
It also opened the door for the Birds of Prey to get their own film. Which I really hope they do.

The only way I think they can fix Cassandra Cain in the DCEU is this.
Montoya introduces Cassandra to to an older Barbara and Barbara spends the movie passing the torch down to Cassandra and the villains in the movie are obviously Lady Shiva and David Cain

I love the batfamily but please I want more focus on the Arrowfam and Wonderfam. I want Mia Dearden, Connor Hawke, and Roy being siblings again in comics. I want a Blue Beetle and Booster Gold show of them being absolutely dumbasses dragging Jaime along. I want that Jaime Blue Beetle out already dammit. Hell I wouldn’t mind a Batfam movie if it was focused on Oracle or Renne Montoya, y’know someone different the usually suspects
no no more batfam movies. if i had to see a movie focused on girlboss gaslight babs i’d lose it. i’m already annoyed the gotham knights video game refused to utilize steph or cass.
anyways more arrowfam.
ummmmm oh! a wonderfam movie could be sooo good if they recast gal gadots zionist ass. maybe get rid of her and recenter on Cassie Sandsmark
