Punchline Special #1

 

"We wanted the character to catch. But the fact that within two days of her design being out in the world, not even her appearing, we were getting fan art and cosplay of the character... that was an incredible feeling. And continues to be an incredible feeling. There feels like there is already a growing Punchline fandom online, even though the character has only appeared in a few comics so far. That is a really phenomenal experience, and something I do not take lightly." -- James Tynion IV

Is that supposed to be Leslie Thompkins? Or did they choose a really bad name for the doctor?

Solid concept for a villain, even if the execution stumbles at times. Somehow this feels like a natural opponent for Batgirl. Also, it does make me chuckle, and I do think this is intentional, how clearly Punchline doesn't get the Joker no matter her speeches on him. It's not that he forgets the larger audience, he just doesn't care.

She seems... rather young. I never got the impression that Leslie Thompkins had the Aunt May problem of people only ever drawing and writing her as a withered crone, actively knocking on death's door, so seeing Thompkins get deaged is a little disappointing. Like jeez, just let characters be old, DC.
