I mentioned during the weekend's shenanigans concerning Gail Simone and Batgirl that I'd heard a number of stories concerning the relationship between creative and editorial at DC Comics right now Gail Simone and her editor Brian Cunningham was just one example.
Another concerns a creative team on a very prominent title over a number of months[...]
Gail Simone's firing from Batgirl is one reason why: It may have been all in the language – she didn't leave, she was pushed It may have been that circumstances changed If so, it appears that they changed back Either way, I have been informed from all sources that Simone is no longer on the title[...]
It's a story we've been exploring this past week, Gail Simone off Batgirl, the DC New 52 title most associated with one creator more than any other Today, Gail confirmed the news The response from her peers was instant.
@gailsimone forced off Batgirl This is so fucked up I have no proper words…
— J.H[...]
Last week, we reported that Gail Simone had left Batgirl A couple of days later, Simone responded, telling her board that she had not left Batgirl.
It may have been all in the language – she didn't leave, she was pushed It may have been that circumstances changed If so, it appears that they changed back[...]
They may be delayed because there are… let's go with "issues"… to sort out.
For instance I understand that Batgirl #17 and #18 won't be written by Gail Simone This specifically isn't an indication that Gail is off the book, I have been explicitly told that this is a fill-in writer situation.
With Gail Simone's workload at[...]
A chance to reintroduce a host of supervillains to the new DCU, and putting them up against superheroes they may not always have been associated with.
Apart from Batman and The Riddler.
We've already reported on The Prankster in Nightwing, now I understand we can look forward to the rebooted Ventriloquist and Scarface in Batgirl.

More on Gail Simone and Batgirl: Today, on her message board, Gail Simone replied to the rumours we've been reporting that she may be leaving the Batgirl title December now, there's plenty of news about 2013 projects coming from both Marvel and DC this month, I'm sure.

Today, on her message board, Gail Simone replied to the rumours we've been reporting that she may be leaving the Batgirl title.
She simply stated;
I have not left Batgirl.
Which is pretty cut and dry and far more than she was saying when I put the matter to her earlier in the week By five words.
There's always[...]
Rumors about DC 2013 continue: As we were preparing yesterday's story concerning rumours Gail Simone leaving Batgirl, and other DC creative changes, Gail was fueling them on Twitter Such as this conversation.

Just as I was about to run the story about the Villains Month at DC Comics yesterday, I received an e-mail from an anonymous source that not only backed up everything I'd heard from good sources about that project but added some new details about DC right now, some of which I'd heard (and was[...]
In today's Batman Inc, we go to the future. One we've previously glimpsed in which The Joker takes his ultimate revenge on Batman. A real end times story
Ireland, Israel/Palestine, wings and horns, when it comes down to it, it's all a load of balls.
While Batgirl gives us one of the biggest pulling-the-rug, pull-back-and-reveal moments of the week… will you see this one coming? I didn't…

One of the comics I have started reading in the New 52 is Batgirl, a comic I was sure I wasn't going to like When I heard that they would be bringing Barbara Gordon back to the Batgirl role I was incredibly disappointed, I loved her as Oracle and wanted her to remain in the[...]
DC's best new buddies Buzzfeed have published a preview of the Dustin Nguyen/Derek Fridolfs Hallowe'en Batman digital comic, airing later today at 2pm ET.
And, as you can see, they even managed to squeeze Stephanie Brown as Batgirl in there Or someone dressed up as her But given the Stephanie Brown-ectomies that have been going on[...]
Did you buy some Batman comics these past two weeks? Care to pay for next week's groceries with them?
Let's take a look at eBay.
Batman #13 going for up to $20 (but mostly more like $15)
Batgirl #13 going for up to $21.50 (but mostly around $18)
Catwoman #13 is already going for up to $20 (but you[...]
From what I've heard from friends who enjoy this character's legacy, this dude's a badass, so it only seems fitting to pair him with a cover artist who is equally so.

So here I am, in a Heathrow lounge, reading the Batgirl I just picked up from Orbital Comics…
Man these things are going to freak some people out.
Hopefully not anyone with a large gun.

But it gets worse.
In Batgirl #0, Barbara Gordon was in the Batgirl suit for a year before retiring to go to university, whereupon she was kidnapped and crippled by the Joker Four years later she returned to the Batgirl identity.
But now Birds Of Prey #0 has thrown a slight spanner in the loop Birds Of[...]
Last night we were directed towards a tweet of Scott Snyder in a Superman T-Shirt. Turns out it was one of a number he was trying on before his trip to
But Batman & Robin #0 and Batgirl #0 are set after that point…
First in Batgirl, the Batsuit is mocked up by the local cops, leaving Barbara Gordon to slobber at the window over it Yes, folks, it's an origin of Barbara Gordon's interest in all things Batman And nothing at all about how she got[...]
Batman & Robin #0 is all about Damien! Batgirl #0 doesn't tell us if she was Oracle or how she started walking again, but it is her origin.
My favorite, and the one true, Green Lantern got his New 52 origin told in GLC #0 I am Guy Gardner's biggest fan and will punch in the[...]
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJYO5oo_tMc Awwww... congratulations, Jennifer and Ruby. A World's Finest proposal, indeed.
Gail Simone writes, talking about DC character Misfit (right); I wouldn’t say she’s NEVER coming back, just that the book idea that I had that included
And it has this entry for Stephanie Brown as Spoiler.
Get that? After a stint as Batgirl, she has returned to being Spoiler Except Stephanie Brown's Batgirl title ended with the New 52 with her still in the Bat cowl, and was Batgirl in Batman Inc: Leviathan If she has returned to being Spoiler, we haven't[...]
Well there's a thing.
Much has been made of DC Comics' seeming disdain for the Stephanie Brown character, whether Spoiler, Robin or Batgirl But of late it's been getting ridiculous, wiped from the New 52, ripped out of Batman Inc and recently removed from Smallville in the role of Nightwing, to the extent taht they even[...]

What began as a deep, dark assassin's tale has turned into a comic with characters showing the depths and appearances of action figures.
Batgirl has been a great surprise, for the publishers more than anyone, as it has confronted its Killing Joke legacy head on, and creating an intelligent work about someone trying to regain her[...]
