![]() ![]() Whether that is by telling an action intense tale or focusing on characterization, she somehow punches the right buttons to make me happy I gave her story a try. Somehow, she can take the biggest pile of crap and make it into a compelling story. ![]() In my eyes, she is on par with any other writer out there – comics or non-comics. But, eventually, I relented, giving this comic collection a try for one reason: Gail Simone.įor those who actually read these reviews I type, you already know I love Simone’s writing. Why change what ain’t broke was my attitude when I first heard about this New 52 reinventing of Babs. She was a fiercely intelligent woman, who had accepted her situation, learned to live her own life in spite of it, and was always icy calm and in control. Actually, I loved Barbara Gordon more as Oracle. LONG VERSION: You really thought you could keep me quiet, huh? Good luck with that. ![]() And the art team did a great job, presenting Batgirl in all her black leather glory. Babs reintroduction to running around fighting crime as Batgirl was filled with realistic touches like her post-traumatic stress whenever a gun gets pointed at her. Gail Simone told a great story that had a plausible explanation for Barbara Gordon not being in a wheelchair anymore. SHORT VERSION: I really enjoyed this one. Batgirl: The Darkest Reflection by Gail Simone ![]()
