I know some people may have already asked you this. If you could or if you wanted to, would you write Barbara Gordon as a bisexual character? Some fans already say she should be. Some fans don't agree. I wouldn't mind it, but I would just like to know

I’m not 0 certain I understand the question—if the question is, would I have a problem writing her as bi, no, of course not. I think Barbara in Birds of Prey could have made that leap pretty believably.


However, there isn’t a lot in canon to indicate that she is bi at this point, that I can think of off the top of my head. If it was going to happen, I would want it to be organic and believable. There would have to be some foreshadowing, some foundational work. I like those kinds of reveals to be done tastefully and with respect to the character and her history.


So it would take some work, certainly.
