I think it would have been fun to have a Carrie story, too. Though I look at The Golden Child as a Carrie story which showed her off to great advantage, and I'm very excited about the Miller/Caldwell YA graphic novel about Carrie. I think Miller's come back to the rails more or less - I think Dark Knight: Master Race was quite enjoyable, The Last Crusade and The Golden Child were solid, and Superman: Year One was at least not as wild as ASBAR.
Well, well said. And I believe that Steph's increased profile and the palpable sense of injustice around how editorial treated her when it came to her time as Robin was a huge part of why the fans embraced her as Batgirl. (Also, Bill Willingham did a video on Saturday where he talks at length about how she came to be Robin, and how he tried to keep her alive because people really liked her as Robin: https://youtu.be/liIY1lnwyjY
Yes, but that doesn't make it non-canon. Or insignificant.
