The CW's Batwoman is a 'Beacon of Change' in New Poster

Batwoman has to be the CW's most controversial DC show to date, which might have to do with all of the feminist speak from its trailer. While there's nothing wrong with a feminist approach, it did have a number of cringe-inducing lines that even women wouldn't appreciate. Still, the show could be a hit with fans and the character is actually pretty beloved in the comics, thanks to a number of great stories from Greg Rucka and J.H. Williams III.

Whatever you think about the show's "agenda," it seems like DC and the CW are sticking with it, especially if this new poster is anything to go by. Showing an image of actress Ruby Rose while a new version of the bat-signal is seen in the background. The official Twitter post claims that she is a "beacon of change," showing that they're sticking with this show's core themes, whether fanboys like it or not.

Here's the series synopsis:

"Kate Kane (Ruby Rose) never planned to be Gotham's new vigilante. Three years after Batman mysteriously disappeared, Gotham is a city in despair. Without the Caped Crusader, the Gotham City Police Department was overrun and outgunned by criminal gangs. Enter Jacob Kane (Dougray Scott) and his military-grade Crows Private Security, which now protects the city with omnipresent firepower and militia. Years before, Jacob's first wife and daughter were killed in the crossfire of Gotham crime. He sent his only surviving daughter, Kate Kane, away from Gotham for her safety. After a dishonorable discharge from military school and years of brutal survival training, Kate returns home when the Alice in Wonderland gang targets her father and his security firm, by kidnapping his best Crow officer Sophie Moore (Meagan Tandy). Although remarried to wealthy socialite Catherine Hamilton-Kane (Elizabeth Anweis), who bankrolls the Crows, Jacob is still struggling with the family he lost, while keeping Kate — the daughter he still has — at a distance."

"But Kate is a woman who's done asking for permission. In order to help her family and her city, she'll have to become the one thing her father loathes — a dark knight vigilante. With the help of her compassionate stepsister, Mary (Nicole Kang), and the crafty Luke Fox (Camrus Johnson), the son of Wayne Enterprises' tech guru Lucius Fox, Kate Kane continues the legacy of her missing cousin, Bruce Wayne, as Batwoman. Still holding a flame for her ex-girlfriend, Sophie, Kate uses everything in her power to combat the dark machinations of the psychotic Alice (Rachel Skarsten), who's always somewhere slipping between sane and insane. Armed with a passion for social justice and a flair for speaking her mind, Kate soars through the shadowed streets of Gotham as Batwoman. But don't call her a hero yet. In a city desperate for a savior, she must first overcome her own demons before embracing the call to be Gotham's symbol of hope."

Fans will be able to check out Batwoman on the CW on October 6.
