Move[edit]

Sorry about the "merge" banner, I'm really requesting a move and I don't think there is a move banner. I think at this point the Rampage persona has clocked up significantly less page-time than the Kitty Faulkner persona. And with a noticible lack of world-class female scientists in the same class as The Atom, John Henry Irons, or Lex Luthor I think DC has been pushing the character's scientific credentials more. Anyone else have a thought?D1Puck1T 17:27, 17 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think more people know her as Rampage than they do as Kitty Faulkner. --Basique 02:51, 18 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

---I'm gonna have to go with D1Puck on this one. I haven't seen her as Rampage since the early 90's but I've seen her working at Star Labs very recently, and much more often.--Wakefencer 10:31, 18 June 2006

Move This will create a redirect from Rampage (DC Comics) so the info will be available from either name. She's at least as well known as Kitty Faulkner, if not more so. CovenantD 15:02, 18 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hero or villain?[edit]

The article doesn't seem to say she was ever a villain, just occasionally taking a mindless rampage. In the JLU show she's definitely evil-aligned. I doubt they'd pull that out of their asses, so is there a point at which she's a villain in the comics?

Lesbian[edit]

There's nothing in the article about Kitty being eitehr bisexual or a lesbian. Something I remember Peter David touching on during his Supergirl run. --Basique 16:35, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Pastiche[edit]

I think I remember hearing that she was a She-Hulk pastiche. I'm not certain, and can't swear to it, but.. sort of fits. I wonder whether I should put it in. - CaptainKobold, 20/Jan 2009 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.203.3.87 (talk) 21:21, 10 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well, she's more likely to be a Hulk pastiche (though gender-swapped) than a She-Hulks's. Kitty Faulkner has more in common with Bruce Banner than with Jennifer Walters. Both Faulkner and Banner are genius scientists, while Walters is a lawyer. And, considering Rampage's first appearance, her origin is quite similar to Hulk's: a brilliant scientist caught by an explosion of her own creation, becoming a hulkish monster. As in her first appearance Rampage doesn't talk, it can be a reference to live-action TV show version of Hulk as well. Of course, unless there's a clear statement from John Byrne about it, all this pastiche speculation must NOT be in the article. Luizlac (talk) 02:08, 2 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
