 ===== Her Cousin Is In The Teen Titans =====
+Kate Kane spent her formative years as a gymnast preparing for military service, whilst her cousin Bette spent her formative years practicing to be a superhero. Bette's former incarnation was Flamebird, yet in more recent comics she goes by a different superhero name after training with Kate. Flamebird, unlike Batwoman, did not do it alone as a vigilante, but instead formed a squad. [([[https://teentitans.fandom.com/wiki/Flamebird|Teen Titans]])]
+===== She Was Supposed To Be A Justice League Member =====
+Kate Kane appeared to be a significant role in DC's series Justice League: Cry For Justice. Batwoman was revealed as a member of the squad and even appears on the first issue's cover. She didn't linger long. The publisher turned what was supposed to be a continuing series into a miniseries. Instead of standing alone, the miniseries was utilized to build up a new Justice League title. When the sixth issue was issued, James Robinson put a note in the text explaining why Batwoman wasn't on the squad when the alterations occurred.[([[https://www.cbr.com/batwoman-justice-league/|CBR]])]
+===== She Can't Have A Happy Ending =====
+The creative team behind Batwoman's book left not long after her iconic proposal hit comic book shelves. Williams and Blackmore highlighted creative issues, the most significant of which being that DC Comics "forbade" Kate Kane and Maggie Sawyer's wedding. The official DC line was that heroes, particularly those in the Bat Family, couldn't have pleasant personal lives. That dissatisfaction, it appears, is what pushes them to be heroes in the first place. This explains why Bruce Wayne, Barbara Gordon, and Dick Grayson see so much tragedy.

+===== Religious Choices =====
+Kate Kane appears in the DC Infinite Holiday Special in 2006, although her narrative was not about Christmas. Instead, she reminisced with an old acquaintance about Hanukkah, retrieved a stolen menorah, and reconciled a split family. She was dating Renee Montoya at the time, so they spent the holiday together. The narrative that followed the special revealed more than simply her ancestry, as writers wanted to flesh out her past.
