Who Will Barbara Gordon Kill In Birds Of Prey? (Spoilers)

Birds Of Prey continues its chart-busting run this week with issue 10 by Kelly Thompson, Robbi Rodriguez, and Gavin Guidry.

Birds Of Prey continues its chart-busting run this week with issue 10 by Kelly Thompson, Robbi Rodriguez, and Gavin Guidry. And the hunt for Batgirl/Oracle Barbara Gordon, continues.

Oh sorry, that gives it away a bit, she's actually in tomorrow's Batman #148. But let's play along, odds are it's all in a different time period. Indeed, everything seems to be in different time periods in Birds Of Prey right now.

Whether different realities, different times, different states of being, Barbara Gordon may prove slightly tricky for everyone currently looking for her.

Barbara Gordon kills Lani Lockhart, the Velvet Tiger? Time for another deep-ish cut. The Velvet Tiger, usually known as Lani Gilbert, was created by Barbara Kesel and Trevor von Eeden for Detective Comics #518 in 1982. She was also revived for the New 52 in 2015, in Batgirl #43 by Cameron Stewart, Brenden Fletcher, Babs Tarr and Serge LaPointe.

With sporadic very appearances in between and afterwards, Velvet Tiger is an extortionist specializing in blackmail whose desire for power has led her to pursue greater ambitions in the criminal underworld. So why Lockhart? Might she have married Jim Lockhart, the original Red Tornado from 1940? That would be quite the age gap, but as we said,  there is a lot of time travel going on in Birds Of Prey, is there not? And Oracle is coming… Birds Of Prey #10 by Kelly Thompson, Robbi Rodriguez, and Gavin Guidry will be published tomorrow by DC Comics.
