And if I say the idea of Lady Shiva having a suicide wish the way she did during Batgirl 2000 kind of went against some of the stuff I loved about her character in the 70s and in her appearances during The Question then what???

I'd say I absolutely agree with you. And here's why:

Thank you for including scans of both bios!

To Puckett's credit, the death wish works flawlessly as a capstone to Cass' character development. She sees in Shiva what she herself felt, and that knowledge allows her to defeat her, and in effigy, defeat her own suicidal ideation. It's a great arc for Cass that, unfortunately, kinda sacrifices a lot of what makes Shiva feel special in RICHARD DRAGON and THE QUESTION.

Yes, that is one thing I like a lot about Puckett's writing. It creates a pole between how mother and daughter handle two situations with similar emotional turmoil. For Cass it is narratively wonderful, for Shiva, it contradicts the ideas of Tao she so seamlessly interweaves into her interactions with Vic. She felt detached in a manner that exemplified 無為 (wúwéi) in her moments in The Question.

I think I've come around to the suicide thing by, like.

She wants to know what death is like. It's not that she wants to die because her life is miserable or whatever, it's just that she craves the experience because it's something so totally new and utterly alien to everything she could experience. People who are brought back often talk about some sort of revelation or clarity.

Someone who has transcended as much as she has, I think that maybe she could just be curious as to how that goes?

So it's not that she wants to die because she's suffering somehow, she wants to die because she's curious. Cass killing her and dangling her over a Lazarus Pit probably scratched that itch rather well.

That’s my thought as well. She isn’t driven by guilt, but she wants to see if there’s anyone who actually can kill her and what will happen if they do because that’s not something she’s been through before.

“To die would be an awfully big adventure” as Peter Pan says.

cass is gonna pull up to gotham dried tears on her face eyebags on her eyebags bruised scratched and bleeding looking like the wettest most pathetic cat to ever exist and the family is gonna be like hey girl. what the fuck happened to you. i don’t even think she’d tell them i think she’s marching straight to babs giving her a hug meaning one million things she cannot voice aloud and then crashing for two days straight to avoid everyone’s questions

Actually that no punctuation plot hole ooc wattpad fanfic written by that 12 year old will ALWAYS be better than character ai. And I love that 12 year old btw
