With the rumors coming out of this DCU reboot, I knew I was going to start seeing images like this. And it bothers the hell out of me.
As we learn more over the next week, I’m sure there will be people absolutely thrilled if Babs is back in the tights. And there will be those who are equally as upset.
But please remember for many people that chair on the left is something they will never leave.
My mother used a chair for the last years of her life. (I think that’s part of my strong feelings for Oracle, I won’t lie.) For the real-life Oracles, there isn’t any walking away smiling because of magic “get out of the wheel chair” cards.
Please I don’t want anyone to go after this artist. They are talented. I just want people to be aware that there are some sensitive areas around this, if indeed, DC goes in this direction.*
* and if they do then there will be a post the likes of which you can only imagine.

Emphasis mine. The idea this image is based on is actually quite hurtful and ableist.
