  1. Is this a bad place to jump onto this book? I might just buy it for the cover…

  2. no, batgirl is kinda like powergirl in that the story is really light and fun so i would say u could pick up any issue, and i believe this is a new arc anyway

  3. @SteenAR:  you won’t have any problem picking this up now, all you need to know at this point is that there are people at her school being killed which she was framed for.

  4. She just looks so darn happy.

  5. I was about to drop it last month but I’m giving it another chance.  I have a feeling that this is going to be a lot better this time.

  6. No DNguyen?  Even though his work on this has been less than spectacular, will have to flip this.

  7. @robbydzwonar  How could you drop it after that amazing sound effect Batgirl falling page that ended in *DOOF!*

  8. Pretty cool cover. Most of these aren’t turning my crank because the logo is sometimes redundant, but it looks pretty good here.

  9. this was heartwarming

  10. I’ve never read this book before.  I picked it up on a whim and it was so good that it made me realize how bad some of the other books I read are. 

  11. Would they really be doing all this stuff in broad daylight? Also, when did Stephanie find out that Bruce was Batman?

  12. The funniest part of this issue was the crossing guard trying to hold his shirt down while he was strung upside-down.  As a fatty I know that pain all too well…

  13. @Aqua Geez, years ago. If not before War Games, and then during it. She knew at least by the time she came back to life.

    This was a ton of fun! Loved it. Great stuff and my POTW.

  14. I’m about 99% sure she knew by the time Stephanie became Robin.

  15. @Skyfire Of you’re right! Because Tim was mad that Bruce revealed to Stephanie that Tim was Robin.

  16. If Damien is in an issue, I’m picking it up. I’m reading Teen Titans, Batman and Robin, and always on the lookout for more Damien. Even without the Damien factor, this series is a dam good comic. Anyone who digs teen comics, Ultimate Spiderman, New Mutants, Teen Titans, and/or strong female leads will love this series.
