It was only in Batman Beyond, when an older Commissionet Barbara Gordon talked about it as something that happened in the past. Batgirl would have been much older than she was in the cartoons. They do drop hints that Babs was crushing in Bruce, though. When Barbara talks about it, she makes it clear that she saw it as a partnership of equals.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I have to admit I have a hard time catching her up in my head to the point where they would be DCAU peers. I can get to it in the prime continuity, but I can't make her interested, so it dies on the vine there.

Wow. Fate sure is a bitch.

I love the look that Dick gave Zatanna after she lost her father.

Yeah.

I had thought Zatanna was lost to the world, but still. This ending was pretty rough.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Um, maybe some whitefont there for those of us who didn't watch live. I didn't think about the fact the episode was on this morning before I clicked into the thread.

Sorry.

I am those of us who didn't watch live, for the record.

We should have an official TV and movie spoiler policy for this thread so that expectations are consistent. I just never click on here until I've watched the latest ep of whatever, or the latest animated movie that came out.

Momentary mental lapse on my part as well. For whatever reason I wasn't thinking about the fact this is the defacto YJ discussion thread.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Aah! So I reviewed a bunch of Busiek's work, among other things, and then Kurt Busiek commented on my LiveJournal. Oh, THE INTERNET.

P-C, just from a quick click, you look like you might have it on the top of your head, but I welcome everyone's suggestions:

What are the best two or three stories or arcs to convince people that Superman's not just a big extra strong Boy Scout, and that he's a character worth caring about, and worth writing about?

It's a conviction I have from reading his stories on and off, but I don't have anything to point to during (online, natch) debates with haters, and it's frustrating.
