20. "This is so stupid"
In response to In response to 0


  

          

The joker fucking paralyzed her in The Killing Joke

of course if she has a tear in her eye she's obviously still fucked up over that whole ordeal and has left her mentally scared a bit.

Batman had his back broken
Superman died

Don't act like bad shit don't happen to male super heroes.

I swear this internet outrage is getting out of hand
