Head Librarian of Gotham City Library, Dr. Barbara Gordon was elected and served as U.S. House Representative
It was before Crisis on Infinite Earths


that mask design is saying
"Look...it's Barbara Gordon disguised as Batgirl"

People in the comics must be stupid to not know that Barbara Gordon and Batgirl are one and the same

It is that way with a lot of superheroes.

I mean Robin and Nightwing only use an eye mask to protect their identity. Even the previous cowl of Batgirl doesn't cover a lot.

All this without mentioning Superman.

Tom King is working on secret television stuff, hence his absence

Thoughts:

. . . - Can we even still call Harley the "Clown Princess of Crime" if she's not really a Supervillain any more?

- Was anyone asking for the return of the Joker's daughter? Probably the same amount of people who were hoping for something like "Ric" for Nightwing...

If written well, I'd prefer the Joker's Daughter over Harley Quinn.

- Cormorant looks like discount Midnighter.

If written well, I'd prefer the Joker's Daughter over Harley Quinn.

I also am glad that the Joker's Daughter returns...as the villainess she was meant to be.

She is a distinctly Grayson villain...just like Cormorant is a distinctly Barbara villain. (So I'm glad Cormorant is back too.)

If written well, I'd prefer the Joker's Daughter over Harley Quinn.

I'd prefer Joker's Daughter over ever EVER hearing "Ric" used as the name for Dick Grayson.
Who is the brain surgeon that thought THAT change would go over well with Nightwing fans?

(I actually don't mind J.D., I just think she needs a clear purpose that is different than Harley Quinn).

If Harley remains a 'heroine' then J.D. can be the 'villainess'.

[Armor of God]

Definitely:
Adventures of Super Sons
Detective(both)
Red Hood
Batman Beyond
Catwoman

Maybe
Batman(both)
The Batman Who Laughs

Super sons is bonkers crazy fun damn u bendis

March on art is definitely a no buy for me. I hope King decides to do other stuff permanently.

Really looking forward to Batman Beyond. I tend to prefer that BB not have too many overt links to present-day Batman, but I'm making an exception in this case. Terry v. Joker is always fascinating.

Terry needs to be left alone to star in his OWN book. I really like him and it annoyed me no end to have even Terry shoved aside for Tim Dreck. Terry IS Batman Beyond.

I'm glad they adjusted the cover for that Boom Super Sons comic. The girl's skin used to look so desaturated I assumed she had rock powers/was made of concrete or something.

The new GL kid looks like so much fun. God I'm going to miss Super Sons when it ends.

I love that Barry and Bruce are having a detective team up, I just wish it didn't have the shadow of HiC hanging over it. Way to take all the fun out of murder.

Yay for Etrigan team up, though! Tomasi, you know what I like.

The same brain surgeons who decided Tim was never Robin and made each Robin only worked for a year probably
