Indeed, her issue with Two-Face during No Man’s Land, Two Down ( Batman Chronicles #16) was Rucka’s first comic for DC. Renee originated on Batman: The Animated Series and existed in the comics for a while, but she was primarily developed by writer Greg Rucka (who has solo credit for Half a Life, as series co-writer Ed Brubaker did with the previous arc, Motive) during his work on Batman and Detective Comics. Half a Life is probably the most famous Gotham Central storyline, winning multiple awards and being a crucial development for Renee. Now whether she likes it or not, Montoya is dragged into the spotlight, as Gotham Central strays from procedural casework into an interpersonal storyline, where Renee herself is at the centre of the investigation. Detective Driver, our de facto protagonist for the preceding issues, is so desperate for the efforts of the GCPD to simply be ‘seen’. Identity and recognition are core concepts of Gotham Central, a series about what it means to ‘be a cop’ in Gotham, especially when your efforts are overshadowed by symbolically masked vigilantes. Moving from her familiar neighborhood where she lives into an isolated park, Renee is asked to identify herself. By Bruno Savill De Jong - During her morning jog, Renee Montoya is approached by a stranger.
