Marv Wolfman quote
In reading the wikipedia article about Women in Refrigerators, I came across this quote from Marv Wolfman about his creation Kole. In it he's referring to a list made by Gail Simone about the appearingly unbalanced number of female to male ratio in terms of comic book death body count:

'' "Of the list I killed only two, and two were created to die (Terra and Kole) though Kole was, in retrospect, a mistake which I did because other writers complained we weren't killing off any of my characters in Crisis, and if I wanted their characters to die I had to kill one of mine." ''

This could help lead to the understanding of why Kole's status as alive, dead, or undead is left so uncertain. Like Donna Troy it could be plausible that a sort of undead version of Kole (perhaps one who became the embodiment of her crystaline powers in some way) remembers her life pre & post crisis, and may have experienced many adventures offpanel. These adventures may be much like that of Deadman's, who reportedly has even met the deceased Kara post-crisis briefly. Particularly versatile and crafty writers of the future may even be able to discern from a list of unfairly treated characters in comic book history, and build a super group of characters whose predominant commonality being that the world from which they belong is no more, and they're existing outside current continuity. Of course. All this would be sadly speculation currently. I've no idea where Marv's words could fit in Kole's article, but hopefully someone after me will find a way to fit them in as I feel they're germaine to the topic. ZachsMind 16:49, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
