Always a fun read, I think I am enjoying this more than the Batgirl solo book.

I thought this was a pretty nice read. I really love seeing these team ups and I find the stories really well put together. I liked the first volume a little better, I did really enjoy this and I look forward to see the next volume.

If you are a big batgirl fan, you'll be excited to see (view spoiler) and see she still has some Oracle chops! And if you are big batgirl fan, you'll also be enraged that her cape did not snap off and the "this is why I don't wear capes" comment is actually inaccurate because of the capes design to snap off as a catch pre-caution. See Batgirl, Vol. 1: Batgirl of Burnside in the costume design notes!

3.5: Sadly, I wasn't as thrilled about vol.2 as I was about vol.1. Issue #7 was a blah story. And, I'm not a huge fan of Claire Roe's artwork...the art is a personal preference though, so you might appreciate it more than I did. Issues #8-10 (Blackbird Sings, Blackbird Fly, Blackbird Rise) were much more interesting, and I thought Blackbird was great nemesis. Issues #11-13 (Source Code) had its ups and downs. The storyline was engaging enough, but I had issues with some artwork decisions. I was happy to see the inclusion of other DC characters, such as Nightwing, Green Arrow, etc. It makes me curious about their backstories, and makes me want to read more about them. Regardless of its flaws, I want to see where this goes.

I liked this better than the previous volume. A couple of short arcs that were all good.

Can’t understand the good ratings for this one. It was borderline incoherent.
