Where supply and demand and most accurately reflected, where you can see which books are hot, where new orders are coming in and how retailers are reacting to new, unanticipated desire! I'm told that this Monday gone, DC Comics and Diamond received a massive increase of advance orders from comic book retailers for more copies of[...]

Not too many credit changes to report this week, as opposed to last week's monster list. Just that Avengers #37 will be drawn by Mike Deodato, not Stefano Caselli. That X-Force #11 will be drawn by Rock-He Kim, not Tan Eng Huat. And Jordie Bellaire is no longer the colourist for Batgirl #35 as announced, replaced by Maris Wicks. But one retailer fellow[...]

One that has stood out in storytelling is Gail Simone's Batgirl Picking up from her pre-52 handling of Barbara Gordon with Birds of Prey, she's carried the character forward as a compassionate and intelligent crime fighter with a uniquely feminine voice Still, the art by Adrian Syaf was still nearly indistinguishable from other Batman contributors[...]

By Christine Marie Vinciquarra When I woke up on Wednesday morning I was a little sad, knowing that Gail Simone's last issue of Batgirl was coming out I had been anticipating reading it, but was overwhelmed with concern because the New 52 Batgirl started my love for comics (Yes, I'm one of those people.) I'll never[...]

One of the many things the Batgirl comic, under Gail Simone, accomplished was the emergence of a regular transgender character in a mainstream superhero comic No superpowers, just a life But what future for Alysia in Batgirl now that Gail Simone has left? Well, we assured that the character would still be around, just no[...]

Gail Simone is appearing at the London Film And Comic Con this weekend (taking of which, show organisers? Please get in touch, I have questions…) Which means she's on the British timezone to start talking about what happened with Batgirl. Just for reference, Batgirl #31-#33 were edited by Katie Kubert, assistant edited by Mark Humphries with Mark Doyle as group editor[...]

When DC Comics relaunched their line as the New 52 in 2011, the fact that the maintay character of Barbara Gordon was no longer to be Oracle, the wheelchair bound informational guru, architect and archivist of Birds Of Prey but back in the Batgirl suit, irked many fans But they were placated by lieu of previous[...]

Also it's easier to wash the blood out. If this were anywhere but Batgirl, there would be no other way to interpret this scene, even if, fishnets aside, these ladies dress more conservatively than they used to Confusion on the streets of Gotham reigns… Spread, debuting from Image today gives us another runarond with Lone Wolf And Cub… [...]

Hughes also showed one of the other designs he had turned in for Batgirl and that is what made me want to do this post My guess is this one wasn't rejected because it strayed too far away from the definition of bust. Back in about 2000 I started writing for a website called the[...]

And to be fair, no one wants their fist caught in his nasal passages, do they? Maybe its' a thing. Batgirl may have faced many challenges in her career, but nothing probably prepares you for walking in on your flatmate getting in on while you've been out beating up folk Though the "sock on the doorknob"[...]

Has the super soldier serum worn off? Batgirl teaches us a very valuable lesson when facing a supervillain Always mention the monkeys. From Justice League United #1 … is it me or is this the closest we've had to the golden years of Giffen/DeMatteis for years? Although there are other comics that can challenge that, such as Teenage[...]

Even Stephanie Brown has problems in Batman Eternal. This is your Stephanie Brown watch of the week[...]

I mean he's always had a fractious relationship with Batwoman… from today's issue… But also, it seems Batgirl is getting in on the act too, from Batman Eternal #3. Could this count as domestic abuse of some sort I mean, he's spitting blood each time Maybe it's about time Batman sought some kind of help… Batman Eternal, Batwoman[...]

First the Court Of The Owls nursery rhyme, then a police recruitment poster that would scare anyone into hating the police, and now in Batgirl this children's song that would freak anyone out, never mind summon an evil being from beyond Parents, living in Gotham? Move. The Royals: Masters Of War show the effects of a[...]
