Dr. Roxanne 'Rocky' Ballantine's became one of three women posing as Batwoman. Not one, not two, but three different women make up the persona of Batwoman. One was the brains (Rocky), one was the money (Kathy) and one had the will to make it happen (Sonia). The three of them met through Sonia—Kathy met Sonia in an art class and Sonia was roommates with Rocky in freshmen year at State University. Ballantine's fiancé, Kevin, was thrown in jail for being framed for a crime the Penguin committed—but was never charged for. Her ‘computer geek’ persona was the perfect cover for her not being a candidate for being Batwoman—something that even fooled Batman until end. In part due to her 'geek' status, Rocky is somewhat self-conscious. She has multiple embarrassing moments, including showing her klutziness during a business presentation. She even blushed when making a Freudian slip in front of Bruce Wayne.
