Fr tho on the scale of unloved characters you have characters like Tim and Starfire on the first level, who are going through a rough patch but are getting better and are still loved. You have characters like Wally and Alan Scott on the second level,who disappeared or got screwed over for a long time but are slowly making a comeback. And then you have Kyle Fucking Rayner who I don’t think most casuals even know exists.
You assume the “grounded and realistic” crowd know who Kyle Rayner is, and if they do know who he is, they’d bash him for having a costume and superpowers, which is “unrealistic” and “campy cartoon shit”.
I can’t believe people actually want that for the next Batman movie. Imagine thinking that small. That’s a bad episode of CSI story, not a Batman story.
poor kyle, wasn’t even referenced in teen titans go

Kyle Rayner who?
–DC execs for the last 10yrs
It’d be great if all his victims were also a women. Some reworking saying his wife left him and now he’s just a cold incel
Characters like Kyle Rayner and Wally West simply just don’t exist in the eyes of a lot of casuals.
If you’re starving, just grab something from the fridge
I think it would be even more realistic if he preferred killing people with elaborate Rube Goldberg machine traps that drop a freezer on them.
Kyle just casually flying in and grabbing a corpse while Batman and Mr. Freeze are talking in the foreground.
Oh Snap!
