Batgirl, Volume 1: Batgirl of Burnside by Cameron Stewart

2.0

This wasn't bad, just not my thing. This Batgirl started off REALLY annoying at first, and I almost abandoned the trade paperback. The beginning just screams annoying fake cool/hipster millenials, and it felt like the title was trying too hard. To Cameron Stewart's credit, the script improved, and while this still reads like a shojo manga title that features 20-something-year-olds but appeals to tweens and teens (like an old WB show), it came together nicely in the end with positive messages about social media self-absorption and friendship. I also thought that the recap of Barbara's past was done pretty well.
