Waffletastic Stephanie Brown Appreciation (Spoiler/Robin/Batgirl/Spoiler again)

[Assam]

I think one installment featured a tweet from Tynion teasing Anarky.

Tynion already earned my respect by simply being the one to bring back Cass and Steph...if he brings back f**king Lonnie! Alan Grant personality and all...holy ****, I will love Tynion forever.

Actually, with how Lonnie was all about making things better big picture wise, he and Steph may have a few things to agree on at the moment.

Lonnie was in the n52 - so I don't think he would count as someone who's been gone a long time? At least, I thought he was in the Detective Comics: Endgame one-shot also featuring Steph.

It's incredibly adorable. I call these types of pics "Seeing something through," the line from BQM's Batgirl that references all three of Steph's identities.

It is a shame Lee Garbett does not have more DC credits as his style really compliments the Bat family. After Batgirl the only other time he drew was Batman and Robin #9 where his art was unrecognisable. I'm not sure whether or not it is just him using a different style or just the colourist.
Same goes for Pere Perez, however to a lesser extent as he still has a few more new 52 credits.

That is sad. A lot of the artists I love from Steph's series just aren't working for DC right now - either going indie (Perez and Nguyen) or at Marvel (Garbett).

WHY DOES DC PASS ON ALL THE BEST IDEAS???!

WHY DOES DC PASS ON ALL THE BEST IDEAS???!

Because they are either intentionally or unintentionally sexist? Or because there aren't enough of Steph, Misfit, and Cass fans to buy enough books? Or a little of both?

I choose to say it's because Didio is bad.

Between their respective treatments of their female characters and Eddie Berganza, there isn't a doubt in my mind that the sexism is intentional.

Or because there aren't enough of Steph, Misfit, and Cass fans to buy enough books?

Misfit, maybe, but we both know that isn't true for Cass and Steph. (also, Cass isn't even involved in this pitch)

Well that's just obvious.

Well, I was more thinking about the fact that all three of our beloved no-longer-Batgirls were erased from continuity, while ALL of the boys were kept just fine.

Ahh, gotcha.

Yeah, I'll be satisfied if Misfit just comes back in any capacity (Zinda's return gives me a little hope), but even with them back, I won't be forgiving DC for that sexist crap until Cass and Steph's time as Batgirl are officially re-instated. And even then, it'll still be a black mark on their history.

Misfit is back, per Batgirl #34. She just hasn't appeared in anything else.

Yeah, I know, I've seen the panel. I just don't think of a cameo provided by the character's creator as being back though.

Well, it's more than nothing, though!

Re: Black Marks on DC's history - well, that's the whole point of people arguing about Steph's time as Robin or Cass's skill in beating Batman.
