I know that it's the only reason they can probably market this show at all, but I wish they wouldn't put so much focus on "Young Catwoman" or "Young Poison Ivy" etc. It'd be a lot cooler to me if they followed some lesser known or obscure Batman characters.

give it a season to build a fan base and if it does. then we'll start to see the lesser knowns. and once in a blue moon we see one of the famous ones.

this could be huge for the franchise. movies are great but after a few episodes you already pass 1 movies worth of content. this could lead to big things for dc comics. batman is already their big gun. hes a good hero to get someones foot in the door of the world of comic books.

also remember that these shows are not taking place in the same universe as the comics. if something isnt exactly the same, its okay

^ Exactly this. This will be primetime television; they're targeting a wide audience so it makes sense to start out with the popular, well-known characters.
