It's hard to believe that Kathy Kane is an honorable mention,

but that's the universe we live in.

Don't get me wrong - the story of Kathy, still largely untold, is one of my favorites in the space corner of the campaign. Taut, filled with unfathomable mystery, and largely revolving around the intimate story of a hero in crisis, Kathy's plot thread currently belongs largely to Rosetta through one RP session.

Once known as Batwoman, Kathy arrived on the scene as a secret astronaut in service to a global espionage agency known as SPYRAL. What is Spyral? Kathy's not sure. How did she get in space? She doesn't know. Didn't Kathy Kane get murdered by the League of Assassins? She thought so, too, but here she is.

As you can imagine, this is a hell of a headache.

First encountered frozen in stasis aboard the Auctioneer's menagerie-ship alongside a dozen other notable historical luminaries, Kathy represents that classic retrofuturistic ideal of space from the 1930s and 1940s. Bearing the trappings of old school hard sci fi - a jet pack, a blaster pistol, and a great damned hairdo, I think Kathy has the potential to play a huge role in the war in space. And so does War, through Rosetta, who has begun to develop a budding relationship with her. I think it's a potentially strong story - War loves to play detective, and Rosetta is a cerebral character with a vested interest in solving this particular mystery.

More interesting, however, is what Kathy Kane may represent in space. Alongside Bizarro and Wonder Woman Robot, the former Batwoman is one of a set of off-brand members of DC's Trinity. What use can the players find for the Almost World's Finest?
