BATMAN FANCASTING: requested by absentlyabbie

“He’s only one man. He isn’t in every patrol car, or walking every beat. It helps for other cops to see someone like me working next to them. Being a woman makes it harder. I end up with a lot to prove.”

Note: I’ve been a fan of Renee Montoya since Batman The Animated Series, but I didn’t realize how significant her character was until I looked into the comics. 

She was a queer WOC, an honest cop in a department full of corrupt white men who went on to become a costumed hero in her own right. Even after she became The Question, she regularly faced Gotham’s notorious without the benefit of a protective suit, advanced fighting skills, a scary reputation and gadgets.

A lot of fancasts I’ve seen for Renee usually go with Michelle Rodriguez, but I decided to go a different route after seeing Stephanie’s portrayal of Rosa Diaz in Brooklyn Nine Nine.
