User blog comment:Hatebunny/Some thoughts on Batwoman and DC's embargo on marriage/@comment-220364-20130906024552

I'd say it's a silly thing for DC to run off a good creative team on, but it's been done over less.

You do have to wonder if part of it was not wanting to follow Marvel in to the flack that the Northstar wedding generated. More so since DC didn't have the fall back Marvel had with Northstar being Quebecois.

As for the wedded couples dynamic causing problems... I think it may be more the kids and to a lesser degree a partner who is a strong character. If the "Hero" is the stronger character, the domestic plot lines can be pushed back. The Wally/Linda and Clark/Lois set ups lacked that, big time.

As for Arrow and Canary... to be honest, once Grell left. Ollie was hit with a degree of Flanderization, to the point that Simone is right - the self-centered, womanizing idiot that he had become is not good fodder for marriage, much less for interesting stories including that element.
