I always liked Batman Beyond, but I think I was attracted to it more stylistically than I was thematically. It was beautifully shot, with an interesting combination of animation.

Babs is the Oracle, right?

Then who is the Batgirl I see in "Bruce Wayne, Murderer?"

Babs is the Oracle, right?

A-yup.

Then who is the Batgirl I see in "Bruce Wayne, Murderer?"

That's a newer Batgirl, the daughter of an assassin who was one of the people who trained Batman how to fight.

Also--fans of Outsiders Ho-yay really need to pick up the current issue. Immediately.

Drat! I bet all the stuff I bought used from Amazon's "Marketplace" will turn out to be single issues of different series.

Dude, that sucks so hard. Can you still nail the seller somehow for breaking Amazon rules?

So, apropos of nothing much, how's that whole new Batgirl thing working out anyway? I've only ever read a guest spot she had in Superboy back when Joe Kelly was writing it. Nice, well thought out addition to the Batverse, or more on the level of tacky RazorGlove Batman with 'improved' grittiness action?

FWIW, I liked her in that SB isssue, but that may just be Kelly making me like characters who'd otherwise be worthless.

And what's her name?

Erotic Butch and Sundance! I'm dying.

And what's her name?

Cassandra Cain.

Erotic Butch and Sundance! I'm dying.

I only read it briefly, over dinner, but I thought that whole scene with Arsenel and Grace was HI-larious.

Does Cassandra have, like, a messed-up face? (I can't think of any other way to put it.) Because she didn't, and then she did. In the one comic I've read.
