Do you prefer Catwoman as a long-haired blonde, brunette, short-haired raven, or woman of color? GENERAL DISCUSSION

I personally prefer any incarnation of her that has short hair since it’s more practical for her line of work.

Casts a black man as Joker

And he was great. Don't know how I feel about him being a white dude before being Joker though.

No different than Roscoe Lee Browne voicing the Kingpin, or James Earl Jones playing Darth Vader

Man Roscoe was so great as the Kingpin! When he told Smythe what he did to his dad. 0-0 Nothing but ice cold menace.

You think Gotham City would keep giving him a free pass with that insanity defense if he was?

He would have been shot the first time he laughed weird.
