Batwoman continues to break ground on The CW, and that looks set to continue in the upcoming March 8th instalment. As you can see in the gallery below, Kate Kane (suited up as Gotham City's new Dark Knight) finally kisses Sophie while in costume, something we first caught sight of at the end of this past Sunday's episode much to the excitement of many comic book fans.
That's a big step forward for the genre, and the Arrowverse has beaten the Marvel Cinematic Universe to the punch because their first gay superhero - and first gay kiss - won't be seen until
Eternals.
The episode is titled "Grinning From Ear To Ear," and the network has released this description:
AT WHAT COST — Batwoman (Ruby Rose) and Luke (Camrus Johnson) are on the trail of a villain targeting social media mavens. Sophie (Meagan Tandy) gets an unexpected visit from her mother, and Mary (Nicole Kang) offers her expertise to assist Kate. Jacob Kane (Dougray Scott) is approached to make good on a favor, while Alice (Rachel Skarsten) focuses on her plans for retribution. Michael Blundell directed the episode written by Denise Harkavy (#114). Original airdate 3/8/2020.
