Exactly. I kind of hate constantly reading about the 'controversial' bat-Cat hook-up where the reasoning seems to be that it's 'prudish' to find the scenes off-putting, rather than that it's an awful depiction of the two characters as we have known them. Given that the 'new' DCU Selina is really first glimpsed in that same issue, I don't think it can be claimed that anything she does is 'out of character', since the series is presumably establishing that character in this 'new' 'verse, but it does offer us a character with questionable standards (and taste). Batman, OTOH, while also 'new' in this universe, has an established child from an ill-advised relationship, and it's HE whom I lost respect for in those first issues.
