how does one get the job of “Batman researcher”?
Step one, research Batman.
Step two, be successful enough that people buy your books and invite you for talks.Step three…quit rather than get fired for finding out the gay son had a daughter??
(this can’t be right, does someone have an original restore point for step 3? an offsite backup? an earlier version? you’re saying this is correct? what?)
I assume by being a Nerd with a doctorate or two
I feel like the part of this story that isn’t really getting the necessary level of attention is the part about “Batman researcher”.
“No one has the right to talk to a child about sexuality unless it’s the parent, or the parent has given permission,”
First, that’s patently bullshit.
Second, what does Fred Finger or his sexuality have to do with the creation of Batman? I don’t see the need to bring up Bill Finger’s kid at all, regardless of orientation.
Fred Finger was born Dec. 26, 1948. Nine years after Batman was introduced. 5 years after Batman first appeared on film.
It’s a tragic story:

Nothing to do with the creation of Batman.
It says in the article:
Finger died in obscurity in 1974, with artist Bob Kane credited as Batman’s only creator. Finger’s only child was a son, Fred Finger, who was gay and died in 1992 at age 43 of AIDS complications. Bill Finger was presumed to have no living heirs, meaning there was no one to press DC Comics to acknowledge Finger’s work.
But Nobleman discovered Fred Finger had a daughter, Athena Finger. That, he said, is a showcase moment of the presentation he estimates he has given 1,000 times at schools.
“It’s the biggest twist of the story, and it’s usually when I get the most gasps,” Nobleman said. “It’s just a totally record-scratch moment.”
Not sure, why you’re thinking this is purely about the initial creation of Batman…
“No one has the right to talk to a child about sexuality unless it’s the parent, or the parent has given permission,”
It’s complete bullshit. I’ve worked as an aide in a kindergarten before and you tell the kids that sometimes kids have two moms because at some point, both moms will have picked their kid up. That’s it…the reason is basic af.
Yup. You can’t blindfold your kids.
“Yes we can!” said conservatives.
Hey, I’m not here to kink shame. ;)
Stop saying gay and show these kids how superman rips the jokers head off. USA USA
If I remember correctly, Superman punched through Joker’s chest.
That is correct
He disappeared without notice during his rooftop meeting with the principal.
