Kirk and Francine had a daughter,(Rebecca) but she was "retconned"out after "OYL" Francine has an assistant named Salah Miandad, Kirk, a sister named Britt. Rebecca was not retconned. she was killed. Francine was killed too, but Morrison decided that he would screw with a better writer's story and bring her back and not explain how she returned. Kirk, Francine, and Rebecca have been named. one member of the family still goes unnamed.

nope. the Man-Bat family refers to the direct family members, all of whom have become Man-Bat/She-Bat.

Rebecca's brother, Aaron Langstrom( who reverts to the Man-Bat state naturally) correct. Aaron was born a man-bat. he's also deceased. However, I have dug up two other named offspring of the Man-Bats: Elizabeth(From the Unofficial DCU database on Dr. Francine Langstrom) and Adam Langstrom(From the DCU New Earth Wiki entry on Dr. Francine Langstrom) spider-bob.com/villains/dc/Man-Bat.htmThis site has a cool pic of Robin defending the Man-Bat family, and you can see there's a few of em on the DC Database page its a typo, its supposed to be Aaron, not Adam. thats a fan contributed site. if i have time later and i remember i'll go in and fix it. and you must have read it wrong on the unofficial guide to the DCU. here's the page, have a look: www.dcuguide.com/who.php?name=shebatand in the pic with Robin there's only the 4 of them. that image is the cover to Robin # 77. in that issue, there are only the 4 of them.

The Revolutionary? The only thing I can think of that even comes close is the Batman Family team-up of Robin and Batgirl where Benedict Arnold somehow comes back from the dead with assistance from the Devil to do something evil. I also seem to remember Barbara was a Senator or Congresswoman....
God, that was a horrible story.

Crud. I just lost $20. Yes, he was in a one shot. It was Bruce Wayne, and he "killed" Selina and Helena Kyle.

It was Bruce Wayne, and he "killed" Selina and Helena Kyle. i dont read much Elseworlds, so thats an easy area to stump me. you scared me there though, i thought i was losing it. there's not a villain that appeared in regular continuity that i'm unaware of. it took me awhile to realize that i never heard that name before. you had me searching through my archives and everything. and to wetstereorebel: why did you have to remind me of that horrible time when Barbara was a part of Congress and was still being Batgirl and based herself out of DC. the funny part about the whole thing was that some of the issues had her facing regular Batman rogues. in DC. because Batman's villains leave Gotham so often. the best was that it was all her extensive experience in being a librarian that led her to find a career in politics. that being erased was one of the good things to come out of Crisis on Infinite Earths.

that scene didnt actually happen in reality though. wasnt that a dream. that was kind of a trick question. a good question. but a trick one. i should have got that. i read that arc. thats the arc when Catwoman gives up her kid and has Zatanna undue her mindwipe and she goes villain again right?

It did happen. It was later that Selina decided to have Helena adopted. As for Catwoman going villian, that book didn't really say, only that Catwoman asked that Zatanna "midwipe" her to forget her daughter and to become a villian again, but Z told her that the choice was hers to become a villian once again.

Not sure of the issue number as I read it in the "Catwoman Dies" graphic novel, which ties together several Catwoman issues.

Wesker have a kid or somethin? Cause Scarface only worked with "dummy" to my knowledge. she's not related to Wesker and she only met him on a few occasions. she was engaged to Matthew Atkins, one of Bruce's friends, but she couldnt marry him because her father forced her to marry someone else, who then had her father killed and tried to kill her. she got shot alot and was lying dying and happened to be in the same place where Wesker got killed and she found Scarface and took him and healed up and then fixed Scarface and she became the second Ventriloquist.
