Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That's my girl!

I thought Batman himself would need to resort to utility belt trickery to manage that?

She can beat Batman, you know. I mean, I don't think she can outthink him, and so would lose, but she can outfight him.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Piffle. SA was infinitely cool to begin with.
You people, with your nice. Thank you.
Okay, I'm three issues into Fugitive, Volume 2, and may I just say, regarding Murderer and Fugitive:
This. Fucking. Rocks.
I read it on the rec of Tom Scola, and it was the push that tipped me over into actually being a *fan* of comics versus someone who just listens with a grin as her friends talk about them. It also made me fall for Batgirl.

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

Yes, I am totally using this as a hook. It's a very good hook.
It also made me fall for Batgirl.
And yeah, I get it now. She's so adorable.

So, my roommate is looking for a giftie. I never followed Marvel that well, so I don't know the answer. Perhaps one of you do.
I'm searching for a comic for my Marine's Christmas. Its his favorite issue of the Wolverine Comic, but its been so long he can't remember the name. All I know is that Wolverine along with Havoc and Longshot (?) are playing poker in a bar, I think he said an alien bar or some kind of other dimension, and Wolverine bets his life in the game and it ends up being a bluff, something like a pair of 2's. Any chance you or one of your comic buddies know which issue this is?
Ring any bells?
