Yesterday, while cruising Bonanza Books & Comics with my daughter, after hearing they do not carry issues of Birds of Prey that they know of, my mind leaped from Barbara Gordon as Oracle to likely Barbara as the squinchy-faced Batgirl from Kevin Maguire’s sketch. I nipped over to the recent DC release section to see if they had any copies of this Batman Confidential ruckus. They did, and, while their current issues look pretty interesting, I had to go with this older issue, even if it is in the middle of the series (what can you do? I am powerless to resist Catwoman).
Girrrrlfiiiight!
I actually read that in one of the issues in this series, Catwoman and Batgirl are about to rumble on a rooftop when Catwoman gets shot off the roof by someone else, and apparently Batgirl freaks out on the shooter. That sounds rad, I hope it happens in this one. If it doesn’t, I’ll have to broaden my search for the rest of the issues in this series.
