She humanized Batman, but she also wrote Tarantula raping Nightwing, then handled it very poorly. She doesn't seem to know the definition of rape, either. "For the record, I’ve never used the word 'rape', I just said it was non-consensual." Non-consensual

Yeah, I wasn’t reading many comics at this point and heard about it later. I can’t defend it, I don’t understand the thinking behind it and to this day, I haven’t actually read it. People do misfire. I can’t really speak for Devin but it’s a very, very odd choice, as much as I love her and her writing.
