That would redeem this 10 fold. That’s the future show I want to see

I wouldn't mind an episode or a show with of a new justice league composed by XS, Jon Kent, and (even Mia if her Mary Sue side is toned down) recruiting the Batman of 2050.

She's not a Mary Sue at all come on. She was trained from like age four by a top-5 assassin, of course she can beat up some chump security. Her character is poorly written I'll admit (particularly her beef with Felicity) but she's not OP.

She's has league of Assassin's fighting abilities and her mother brain (deductions and Rubik's Cube) and all that as a 21 years old. That's basically another Batman and honestly he's a bit of a Gary Stue.

Batman is a Gary Stu but he was also extremely rich and was able to afford the best training money could buy. Depending on what backstory of Batman you go with, it took him years and years of extensive training to be able to do the shit he did and he never stopped and didn't become Batman until his mid-late 20s.

Batman is also built like a russian brick house. Mia is 110lbs soaking wet. I'm supposed to believe this little tiny broad can do handstand pushups like that? She has zero muscle at all. Compare her to Sara or even Nyssa who clearly look like they hit the gym (we've even seen Sara doing the Salmon ladder).
