Okay, I don’t want to start shit by posting these scans.
Because I
used tolove Babs!But this is still really funny.
And I know I’m going to get shit for posting it but screw it.
Wow, what issue is this from, anyone know?
It’s funny, but it’s also true. I don’t think Barbara before OR after the Killing Joke could ever go toe to toe with Cass.
I like to think she might get a little better each time they face off, but Cass is always going to be the superior fighter.
Batgirl: Secret Files and Origins IIRC.
That would explain how I missed it, I didn’t get that book when it came out, I guess.
I kind of love this scene. The Batgirl writer in me wants Barbara to do a little better, and the Cass fan in loves it just as it is. :)
Gail? Can I ask a question? Do you plan on having Babs mention mentoring both Cass and Steph in the Batgirl book?
I have to be SO freaking careful here for a bunch of reasons…I don’t want people to take what I’m saying the wrong way, I hate spoilers, and there’s also a confidentiality issue.
So I have to really walk a fine line.
All I can say is, first, I was kind of behind the idea of Cass or Steph, probably Cass, being a supporting character in Batgirl. But I really think she deserves better. I would prefer that they not be in Barbara’s shadow, even unintentionally.
Batman isn’t going to be in a lot of issues for a little while, so the answer is probably no, but I think the question you are asking is if they will be mentioned at all, right?
IF everything goes as planned, I am hoping we can mention at LEAST one of them in a very positive way fairly soon. The exact connections are still all being worked out and negotiated and planned.
I wish I could answer this better, dang it.
