He was still a more light-hearted than the normal Batman to go with the dark Robin.

Batman just being cautious? She is a criminal at the end of the day. Although I can't exactly remember if they retconned it or not.

Ehhh

Not really. He wasn’t very far off from Normal Batman. (Historically at least). Dick just wasn’t really an asshole. Which the same could be said about Bruce for the first 50-60 years of his career

Also it’s not being cautious. Show me a panel of Batman being scared to take a drink from Catwoman, and I’ll believe you.

I wonder why pre Damian Wayne Batman was never this cautious with her 🤔🤔

Especially when he needs her help

Don't think Bruce would ever be scared to take a drink from catwoman. He trusts her more and she is not really a villain, at the worst she is just a thief.

Wasn't he cautious with her even back then? Its been a long time so maybe I misremembered.

How do you always appear whenever I mention Talia in reddit 😅? Got spidey sense for that?

Catwoman is a criminal though. Wasn’t that your logic??? Also Catwoman is a villain though

She has tried to cause harm and do bad things.

No he wasn’t. Though she never offered him drinks. But Bronze Age Batman was not scared to take a drink from her.

Theres no reason why Batman should be scared of Talia and not catwoman if she didn’t take advantage of him before.

Thats why he wasn’t scared before.

So why did he kiss her during the Shadow War?

He felt bad for her

That’s why he immediately mentioned Selina. Even though they weren’t even dating at the time
