A question that can't leave my head-
In Lazarus Planet Dark Fate Xanthe mentioned that Cass is the only bat in this side of town, "this" referring to Chinatown.
Tumblr media
Did the Batfamily when dividing Gotham who-covers-what while patrolling just gave Cass Chinatown because she is Asian? Or did Cass chose it herself?
Not an Asian person here, but this is from what I know about Cass.
It makes sense to have an organized division of Gotham to cover for patrols where everyone is assigned their own part of town to cover. I can see it happening.
She didn't really grow up connected to her heritage and her people, I don't believe David, her white father, taught her anything about her heritage. So she might not feel that connected this place and her people. And she was only handed this part of town.
And I can see her choosing this place herself because looking at people who looks like her makes her feel belong, she chose this place herself to go away a little from everyone.
I'm just guessing.
I feel it would be funny if she was just assigned Chinatown because she's Asian, Bruce having no sensitivity about this type of thing and is just naively blunt, but I prefer the second explanation in story terms more.

Because sameface syndrome is so common especially depicting Asians, I put together a quick and small reference for how to draw different types of faces.
Remember that "Asian" includes Southeast Asia, India, and west Asia as well! We're all not held to the beauty standards marketed by westernised Asian media exports! Even "mainstream" north eastern Asians do not always have the long face and white skin that you see in movies.
Tumblr media
The opening image is a more photographic depiction of some different face shapes, but for a simpler image, eyebrow fashion is actually a good place to find face shapes. (Apparently styling the eyebrows to compliment the face shape is a thing. Who knew)
Tumblr media
Averages of faces over a few countries. I do NOT recommend using these averages to reference characters, because every individual is unique. If you point at the "Filipino" square to say, "This is the faceclaim for my Filipino character!", you're once again in the Asian sameface hole. However, it's just a reminder that there are many, many different ethnicities that fall under the "Asian" category.
Tumblr media
This eye shapes chart is quite simplified, and the appearance will change slightly depending if the eye is double or single lid. However, these are classic archetypes that are commonly identified in Chinese culture.
Tumblr media
Translation, left -> right
Row 1:
Zuifeng eye (or fox eye) rarely seen
Danfeng eye (or phoenix eye) rarely seen
Peach flower
Row 2:
Apricot eye
Round eye
Hanging eye
Row 3:
Upper tilt eye
Willow leaf eye
Thin eye
I feel it's really important to note that the first two eye types, Fox and Phoenix, are the ones most commonly portrayed on Asian characters. However, they are actually the LEAST commonly seen in real life. Most people have some combination of the two lower rows.
Last but not least, people are not all lily white like in commerical ads. Makeup foundation swatches are a good place to reference skin tones in general, but I grabbed this image from Shiseido, a popular beauty store chain in Asia. Look at those variety of tones.
(And for the love of god please do not make your asian characters literally yellow. I will manifest on your doorstep with a pickaxe)
Tumblr media
And that's all I have for now. Obviously not a comprehensive guide, because my cultural knowledge is limited to my own demographic, (and because nothing can comprehensively cover the wonderful variety of humans), but hopefully it can help a bit.
And very importantly, I don't advocate for any one feature over another, we are beautiful because of our differences.

pretty much as I know, we have a lot of different asian lois (Korean, Japanese, Indian) we got indigenous lois, latina lois & muslim lois and it's so important to me and make me so happy to see this kind of diversity and people can explore themselves in her, like, so many possibilities!!
I hope we can get more of her being poc in comics and other medias (and also Jon)
