History ComicBook / BatwomanRebirth

* SeriesContinuityError: Kate's distinctive tattoos are missing in the first arc almost entirely, and are inconsistently depicted in issue #1; they're gone in present day scenes and are only shown once during a flashback, which is especially strange since they're specifically discussed in said flashback. Her bluebird tattoo was restored in the first trade, but her arrowhead tattoo was again overlooked.

* ContinuitySnarl: Issue #15 references the "Fall of the Batmen" arc in ''Detective Comics'', particularly [[spoiler:Kate killing Clayface]]. However, the timeline of this series doesn't allow for that to have happened yet, since Kate would need to leave Gotham, have all the events of issues #7 to #16 happen, ''and'' recover from the massive stress of this mission in about a week or less before [[spoiler: she takes command of the Colony]]. Making this more glaring is WordOfGod saying that both Tynion and Bennett hashed out the chronology of their respective series specifically so this wouldn't happen.

* The thermal vision mode of Kate's mask, not seen since her first series, shows up again in issue #13.

* CoolBoat: Kate and Julia operate out of the ''Sequoia'', a large yacht that carries a small fleet of vehicles, spare equipment, and Kate's upgraded Bat-computer. It also has anti-radar shielding and a helipad at the stern, chopper included.

* VillainousBreakdown: Knife has a downplayed one in issue #4 as her plan to destroy Coryana starts to unravel. Normally rather stoic, she begins ranting about her hatred toward Kate (even acknowledging that her violence against Kate isn't just business-based) while beating her up.

* HeroicSpirit: This series sees Kate at the one of the worst mental and emotional places she's been since her days as a hard-drinking party girl. And yet she ''still'' doesn't give up on her mission.

* DentedIron: Issues #7 to #14 take place over less than a week, and during them Kate suffers a battery of injuries and ailments, which include: dislocated ribs, heat stroke, sleep deprivation, blunt force trauma to her head and torso, multiple fear toxin dosings, and a stab to her thigh.

* ThroughTheEyesOfMadness: After Kate gets shot down in issue #7, many of the things she experiences are weird and ambiguous as to whether they're really happening or not, due to a possible combination of likely head trauma from the crash and definite long-term sun exposure and dehydration. And this is all ''before'' [[spoiler:she gets fear-toxin'd at the end.]]

** Played straight throughout issue #11, where Kate's narration mentions that she's lingering on her flaws and failures after the events of the second arc, which causes her to be significantly sloppier about her work.

* BigBad: The so-called Mother of Warlords, the ultimate authority behind the Many Arms of Death and the one specifically creating "trials" to task Kate with. [[spoiler: Turns out to be Knife herself.]]

* BigBad: The so-called Mother of Warlords, the ultimate authority behind the Many Arms of Death and the one specifically creating "trials" to task Kate with.

* LawfulStupid: Julia has shades of this. She repeatedly admonishes Kate, sometimes rather harshly, for relatively minor infractions, such as detouring her mission to try and save a man's life, stealing from her personal weapons cache to save thousands of people, briefly giving into a strong dose of fear toxin, and for [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking not doing the dishes.]] What's more, she does some of this while knowing that Kate is not in the best place mentally.

* ThatManIsDead: Knife has abandoned her old name, declaring Tahani a mere "plaything" of Safiyah.

Her bluebird tattoo was restored in the first trade, but her arrowhead tattoo was again overlooked.
** In issue #12, Kate flies to Brussels, Belgium, piloting a craft called ''Konos'' (which is about the size of a fighter jet), and arrives there at the end of the issue. In issue #13, she's instead on an aircraft called ''Sequoia'' like her yacht, and it's a considerably larger and differently-shaped vehicle.

* ItsAllMyFault: In issue #11, Kate is not in a good mental place after the events of the previous arc, and constantly blames herself for her actions, even when doing so is irrational.

* KudzuPlot: Fitting for a spy-noir, the first arc sets up a number of plot threads for the series: the nature and extent of the Many Arms of Death, Kate's actions on Coryana that lead to Safiyah leaving the island, the dynamic of Julia serving as Batman's mole (including what "Plan B" is), who Safiyah's spouse and heir are, and the seeming ForegoneConclusion of [[spoiler:Kate taking command of the Colony.]]
