My 2017 so far:
Great haul, man, lots of great books. And no Marvel, thumbs up.
Just bought the 24 issue Bryan Q Miller run on Batgirl in the comixology sale...which is about only way I buy comics now.
This was a run that I tried to get several times when I used to buy physical comics...but was always foiled by daft prices for some of the issues. (No doubt tie-in comics, which is often reason for daft prices in fairly recent comics. I detest them...you pay four times price of rest of issues in run, only to find they are usually total crap, because writer has had to accommodate a "big event".)

Heard this is getting a reprint.
Le Suck it, Dolphin!
-God I am so tired.
SCOTT SUMMERS AND EMMA FROST DESERVED BETTER.
That would make sense. It (the Bryan Q Miller Batgirl run) has a good rep, but, for a recent run, has been difficult to get for sometime now. Mind you, difficult to predict how well it would sell: it features a Batgirl other than Babs, so I suppose sales are never going to be stellar??Heard this is getting a reprint.
Cassandra Cain is the first Batgirl who can support her own book so she sells (and i loved her series back in the day) but i don't know Stephanie, i heard that she didn't sell well... and that was great if she didn't sell well for taking the mantel from Cass... (i don't know Steph's sells for sure couse that was a time i quit reading comics for awhile) but instead of bringing back Cass, they brought back Barbara... I like Barbara too... but Cass is the best Batgirl, Cass is totally a more kick ass character.

Stephanie had solid sales (it only ended because of the New 52), and her run by Bryan Q. Miller is phenomenal. Top shelf comics.
Cass is a great character, but she never really felt like a fit for Batgirl to me. I was so happy when she finally joined the New 52 universe in Batman & Robin Eternal though.
