She has the coolest looking heroine costume I have ever seen

[@DHINES-dy3vf]

If you look at the catwoman origin catwoman and huntress almost has the same origin

[@remmant6078]

And poison ivy

[@alexandersmith7061]

Yeah I always liked the idea of Catwoman being Falcone’s daughter

[@darrenbritt34]

Honestly out of most members of the “Birds of Prey”, Huntress deserves her own movie and her own adventure of becoming the Huntress before joining the team. “Hawk & Dove” still deserve their own spin off series in the DCU streaming service.

[@CorbCorbin]

She also was portrayed by the best actress, of the team, and was closest to the comic book character.

[@darrenbritt34]

I really want to see a “Black Canary & Huntress” 8 episode tv series that explores the origins of both characters. Especially with Helena and her new family after the massacre, and Dinah learning her huge plethoras of fighting techniques from a former member of the “JSA” that fought crime with her mom (the original”Black Canary”) “Wildcat” back in the day. But only a fan like me can dream of that.

[@lanhod]

but instead we got shit tons of harley. smfh

[@Calibanzz]

@@CorbCorbin i hope you dont mean the birds of prey movie cuz she looked nothing like huntress more like a CW character the suit and hair were terrible and the actress is talented but shes more like a tomboy in that movie and not as badass / sexy what huntress is supposed to be.

[@CavemanJesus4Life]

I like the Earth 2 version of Huntress, where she is the daughter of Catwoman & Batman

[@victortaylor7737]

She's my favorite too.

[@Gandolfini666]

Nah Batman has enough kids

[@CorbCorbin]

dave israel Only one, and even he’s a test tube baby...😆 Bruce was actually raped by Talia, who used endorphins/drugs, to keep Bruce subjugated while she takes his uhh...essences...in order for her Ultimate Warrior Milkshake. So even in Son of the Demom, which is a story in which Batman is in love with Talia, she takes his little _soldiers_ and makes that D Milkshake. 😜

[@UrSammich]

@@Gandolfini666 Unless you consider all the Robins (minus Damian who actually is his son) to be his children, then yes.

Love Huntress, my favorite female superhero, and a star of a novel I've written. She's a badass through and through, doesn't play by the rules, doesn't give a damn what anyone thinks, and does her thing. She is just friggin' awesome.

The reason why I love huntress is because she doesn't play by the rules like all other antihero the lethal method is necessary Letting the enemy breathe and fight another and is a sure way of them getting stronger what is the point of sending them to jail if there Just going to do it all over again they don't deserve justice only Death

I wish they kept her pre-52 origin story of her being the love child between Bruce Wayne & Selina Kyle. She was a minor character back in the 80's. This is a totally different origin but great video nonetheless.

[@starfire186]

I like this version better

[@starfire186]

And this is pre-52 too

[@admm106]

Have you ever read the original version? I liked that it was complicated, one parent a hero (so to speak) the other gets chased for their misdeeds by your other parent lol. So as the kid, which way do you go with it all... Complicated.

[@starfire186]

@@admm106 yes I know the origin of Helena Wayne too but I still prefer this Huntress

[@CavemanJesus4Life]

On Earth 2 of the New 52 she is the daughter of Bruce & Selena. She goes by the name Bertinelli when she finds out that Bruce Wayne doesn't have a daughter, neither does Selena Kyle. So like Kara Zor-L she changed her name until she went back to Earth 2

I sing huntress is a very interesting character at least sir she's not perfect per se but she got a lot potential of her and if you if I think about it a little bit longer she's kind of similar to characters like Marvel's punisher the sub is stent cuz they're so polarities because they're both Italian and in Ascent they're both violent visual aunties and they're pretty much both lost or loved ones from the hands of evil itself and they're only kill a bad people pretty much and they're both pretty much a black sheep in a superhero community she's pretty much a anti-hero pretty much but a very cool one at least very hot though in my opinion and now when he died but she should have some more media appearances as well I'm probably hopefully appearance in Injustice free and probably her own TV so or movie if it done White and very well
