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

Oh, god, please help me.

Who the hell is wearing the Batgirl costume during NML? Is this something I should shut up about because it will be revealed later on in the story?

Yes, it will be revealed later in the story.

There's prologue story in, IIRC, V5 that explains everything.

V5??!?!

I'm gonna die, here. I'm only on #2. How long did this play out in our calendar?

At least I can stop hating her for being a bad Cassandra, and just hate her for not being Cassandra.

Art Crawl!!!

It's further explained in #3.

Next week, then.

There wouldn't happen to be a comicbook wiki, would there?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

ita, I'm too lazy to Nilly, but I had the exact reaction you're having. It drove me NUTS wondering who this Batgirl was.

I did a threadsuck, and now many posts make more sense. You were indeed perplexed. Trade paperbacks make you crazy.

Save you money, confuse your mind.

5 volumes, right? Maybe I'll just have bn.com send me the rest.

I am hating the art so far in #2.

ita, #2 is the only one I own (Half-Price Books have good prices but hit-or-miss inventory), and I think it's the one whose art I dislike the most.

I have to go take a walk, and then I can read Batgirl Year One. I made a deal with myself.

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

Oh, crap, it's a big deal about who the Batgirl is? Damn, and I accidentally spoiled myself.

I don't know if it's a big deal -- but if it's told as part of this narrative, that's how I want to find out.
