>>115791776Kite Man does not say he's never been with a woman. Again, if you have to lie about what characters say, your point is wrong.
>>115791766Okay, so here I am freely showing you're wrong about what the writers expressly intend:
>Patrick Schumacker: Kite Man as cheesy as he can be, does mean well and does love her.Kite Man is cheesy, he means well, and he loves Ivy. That is what the writers intended.
>"Even though Ivy and Kite Man are very well-intentioned and they care about each other - as much of a lovable loser Kite Man is, he really does care for Ivy. It complicates things," Schumacker replied. Kite Man is well-intentioned and cares about Ivy.
>HALPERN: Ivy’s dating Kite Man. Kite Man’s not a bad guy, but maybe not the right guy for her.Kite Man is not a bad guy, he's just not right for Ivy.
>Halpern: But I think through the season, Harley and Kite Man’s relationship evolves. She begins to understand Kite Man more. I don’t think she thinks he’s a genius, but there is a respect for him by the end of the season.
Ivy respects Kite Man.
>Halpern: I certainly hope so. We love kite man and try and treat him fairlyThe writers definitely want Kite Man to be treated fairly.
And finally:
There's so much Kite Man in the show," Schumacker explained. "His role just grows larger and larger and larger as the show goes on. I know he's got like a really tragic backstory in the Tom King [Batman] run, but he's just inherently funny because he doesn't have any powers. He just has a kite.
>"To us it was like we love those characters that have this like unearned sense of confidence and so we just played that up. We sort of played him as this guy who is crazy... Like the stand in for like dudes who you see who have made a career out of just being confident.Kite Man is fucking confident. He's not an incel. He's so fucking confident he made a career in supervillainy because of his confidence.
So no, Kite Man does not share any major traits with incels.
