“I mean, she does shows and I’ve still got her card,” I pointed out. But I wasn’t really arguing, if Diamond and Asa both agreed about it, I wasn’t going to disagree.

The fact that none of us suggested just, you know, testing it, said something about us and probably not anything good. There was a lot of paranoia about heroes at this point, almost as much as about villains. Especially after Batman and Zatanna had used me as bait...which led us into a fruitless discussion about why that hadn’t been enough, but this had been.
