Agreed. The DCAU didn't make many missteps, but, boy-howdy, when they put their foot in it they did it big style. Bruce/Barbara was a huge misstep, it was a huge mistake. It isn't like there weren't other ways for Bruce to fall out with Barbara and Dick either, it would have been believable enough for him to have become distanced without that. I kinda hate that they keep on doubling down on it too.

I loved Batman Beyond (or Batman of the Future or whatever it’s called), but some things were a bit hard to swallow (like Superman losing untold years of his life to Starro, or the uncertain fates of Bruce’s love interests, or how Batman ultimately didn’t really solve anything).

But sheesh, these comics were awful. Isn’t this the same book that had Wonder Woman basically sell herself to a political marriage with the Justice Lords or something?

"some things were a bit hard to swallow"

That's also why Babs stopped dating Bruce

"I had to unhinge my goddamn jaw"

"But sheesh, these comics were awful. Isn’t this the same book that had Wonder Woman basically sell herself to a political marriage with the Justice Lords or something?"

You mean the writer that treated an adult woman like a rare Pokemon card two men were fighting over ownership over also wrote a story where Wonder Woman sold herself into indentured servitude

It is almost as if this writer has some kind of issues with women
