And Rachel Maddow (MSNBC) is Vesper Fairchild, Gotham City's famed Radio Host; who's voice you hear often throughout this show. Beautiful.
And the Writers of this show are LGBTQ+, Women and B.I.P.O.C. (Black, Indigenous and People of Color).
This series has great stories & plots and goes toe-to-toe to Japanese Anime in that respect.

And this series has given us our first Live-Action version of the Bat-family member: Batwing.
So if you're a fellow Progressive and haven't watched the show, I highly recommend you do so. You will especially love Season 2 & up, as the show keeps upping the ante.
