  1. Actually no, Talia didn't drug/rape Bruce. Grant Morrison did write it that way, but only because he made a mistake when trying to recall Son of the Demon. He himself admits he did not read Son of the Demon before working on “Batman and Son”, and that he is indeed mistaken on a lot of the details. In an interview with Wizard, he said, “For a long time, DC said Son of the Demon was out of continuity. Now it’s just kind of out of continuity. I didn’t actually read it before I started writing this. I messed up a lot of details, like Batman wasn’t drugged when he was having sex with Talia and it didn’t take place in the desert. I was relying on shaky memories. But now we have this new “Superboy punch” continuity after Superboy Prime attacked the fabric of the universe during Infinite Crisis. People still don’t realize how important that single punch was to cover everyone’s ass.” However in the prologue to Batman #666, “The Legend of Batman”, as as in the New 52, it appears that the drugging mistake has been fixed, depicting a much more romantic encounter between Bruce and Talia. Why the animated movie went with such a blatant mistake is beyond me and really pissed me off.

  4. I want to say thank you WatchMojo, for not repeating the false claim that Talia drugged Batman to sleep with him. That's wrong but somehow the animated movie went with it! WTF!!! For anyone who doesn't know - Grant Morrison did write it that way, but only because he made a mistake when trying to recall Son of the Demon. He himself admits he did not read Son of the Demon before working on “Batman and Son”, and that he is indeed mistaken on a lot of the details.

  8. He always does. Heck, in the Batman Beyond comic storyline he knocked up Barbara/Batgirl. (She miscarries though).

  9. I agree the Killing Joke movie did things pretty badly. I guess I'm just used to Batman/Batgirl because I grew up watching Batman Beyond and its just always been part of the canon of that AU. Though when I found out in the Batman Beyond comics that Barbara got pregnant by Bruce I felt super wierded out.

  11. Its not clear. But even if she did die al Ghuls seem to always end up back in the Lazarus pit.

  12. I think it kind of makes sense in a way (let me put on my Arkham armchair therapist hat). Bruce has always dated younger women, possibly as a way to make up for his lost youth. Barbara grew up with a dad who was gone working a lot of the time (not calling Gordon a bad father by any means, but you know a job like that is bound to keep him away from home a lot of the time), so its not unheard of to crush on older men in that kind of dynamic. I just see it as something that could happen pretty easily.
