Four Additional Members for Gotham City Sirens

Earlier this week I got real sick. Deathly, deathly ill. Days in bed, shivers, sweats, multiple pleadings with higher powers. I'm talking serious bathroom time. And through it all, through all the pain and nausea, it still ended up being a better experience than watching Suicide Squad. Bad news, though, folks. WB's Hot Topic Guardians of the Galaxy made money. A lot of money. So we're going to see a lot of merchandise and future movies revolve around this "hit". I'm talking cameos in Justice League, I'm talking a Deadshot spin-off, I'm talking a Harley-led Gotham City Sirens spin-off. A true Gotham City Sirens adaption would only have three main characters: Harley, Catwoman, Poison Ivy. However, we all know Warner Bros' current MO is stuffing as many characters in their movies as possible. So, because I'm a lil helper, I've compiled four other female characters from the comics that they can shoehorn right in.

Huntress

Huntress is the obvious choice. She toes the line between good and evil, perfect for the semi-gritty "we're bad guys, it's what we do" cinematic universe we've got going. Plus, she's basically lady-Batman (or rather she's been stuffed into that role over and over again), and we know how much DC loves putting Batman in things. Sirens is super Batman-centric as-is, so adding a member of the Batfamily is right up their alley. She's in the Batfamily, right? That sounds right. huntress-image

Talia Al Ghul

Batman's lady friend! Could she be the thrust for the whole plot? She could! Why am I framing it as a question? Who knows?! She's an assassin, a world-class leader, and a terrible, terrible mother.  It's an older Batman, though, so would they age her up? It would be after all that Son-of-the-Bat business. If it happened at all. Man, I hope she's older. She could be the cool, experienced, calculating one of the bunch. Someone's gotta know what they're doing. talia_al_ghul

Lady Shiva

They did so well with Katana, I supposed they can have Lady Shiva walk onscreen suddenly and have another character go through her gimmicks. I don't know what exactly you want from me here. She's a martial artist, she wears tight clothes. She fights the Four Quadrant bill to a T. She'd look great on the poster. Shiva's got everything! lady-shiva

White Rabbit

Yeah, yeah, I know. It's a joke. Like the character, I think. She's a joke, right? I've only seen her in throwaway scenes and I've only heard her spoken of in unflattering tones. Which I guess makes sense. The lazy costume design, the easy name. She'd fit right in the movie! Plus, think of the trailer scenes, you guys. I know the Brothers Warner are. white_rabbit So those are my additions to the maybe-upcoming Gotham City Sirens Detective Comics motion picture. Are there more obvious picks? Who would you pick?
