Big fun!! I loved how Dick made a cameo on just about every single issue cover (and his jacket was worn throughout) despite having ZERO page time. He didn’t even get a cameo through the phone with Babs! Everyone loves Dick! 🤷🏻‍♀️

Cass is the biggest badass in all of Gotham. I love my angry tough daughter.
And I liked the ending scene where Babs gave it to Spellbinder tied to a chair! Incredible disability rep.
I wish Babs was still in the wheelchair, I’m glad to have her as Batgirl on occasion, but it sucked that this badass lady in a wheelchair was taken from the disability community to recreate the original Batgirl. I love my silly batgirls. They’re so fun! (ps. Rian Gonzales’ covers were the BEST!!! So so cute and perfect in every way).
