Date: 2020-12-27 08:23 am (UTC)My preferred interpretation is he knows but he's not going to say he knows; kinda like how I see Aunt May. Most of the time it's easy to hang on to that take as long as the writer isn't actively contradicting it. This issue is way too "that awful Spider-Man" for my liking.
Actually, Jim is worse to his niece/daughter than May is to her nephew/son. May may sometimes be hostile toward the vigilante identity but she'd never react this way to her kid joining a protest. Admittedly stuff like the Nolan movies and the recent real life events make it harder to see Gordon as the "good cop" but the initial suspicion of the protest doesn't help; I can think of several incarnations of May that would have already been there with a sign before Peter showed up.

Thank You!

Date: 2020-12-29 12:28 pm (UTC)But Jim Gordon here feels very out of character to me
I know cops in real life, especially in America, are absolute scumbags who'd say all of this and worse but Gordon as a character has, in all the stories I've seen him in, been written as being progressive, intelligent and fully aware that the system as a whole is corrupt which is why he supports the Bat-family acting outside of it while he tries to do what he can from within to make positive change
I mean I'm certain he's ignorant about some things but seeing him in full Old Man Yells At Cloud mode here feels like it was just done so Barbara could change his mind here rather than it being in character with how he's been written in the past
