Gail Simone on what's to come

[shadowpsykie]

An very insightful interview with Gail Simone on Newsarama concerning batgirl.

you can see it here, http://www.newsarama.com/comics/gail-simone-batgirl-cure-revelations-120111.html



Simone: Well, there's an unexpected date, some new neighbors of interest, including one who wants to be Batgirl, new villains, the return of an old one, the answers to the Oracle question, the back-story about her return to mobility, Batman, Bruce Wayne, Arkham, mom, a really unfortunate date, a BOP friend, pirates, a JLA guest star, the worst family reunion ever, muffins, the secret of her martial arts training, the answer to what really happened immediately after she was shot in the Killing Joke. And we're just getting warmed up.

Misfit anyone? my money is on Misfit :D
Also "The Answer to the Oracle Question" and a BoP Friend... and Worst Family Reunion ever. (James Jr?:)

Personal Thought: I know Snyder had James as Dick's archnemisis (his opposite, or Dark Mirror if you will :) but for some reason, i think he would make a better nemisis for Barbara... the good child and the dark child. Snyder showed him to be psychotic, but Brilliant! his whole scheme was imensely demented but shear genious. it would be interesting to have him be a villain for her... its probably not gonna happen but still.. :D

anyways some OH SO PRETTY Batgirl #6 cover art...

Yes, it's the muffins that really grabbed me here. Are they blueberry? Apple-cinnamon? I have so many questions.

[shadowpsykie]

isn't it obvious?!?! they're Chocolate chip cranberry!!

[moetushie]

It's gotta be white chocolate or it's no ball!

[shadowpsykie]

hmmm regular "cake" muffins with white chocolate chips and a cranberry/creamcheese center?

[moetushie]

Oh god, I just want it in my mouth.

I don't care how it sounds.

[shadowpsykie]

O_O....... *bite's lip....*


leaving that alone....

[moetushie]

Probably for the best, really.

[halloweenjack]

Pumpkin with dark chocolate chips. Once you've had them, you will never go back.

[darkknightjrk]

After reading #5, I think I have a good idea about them--I wouldn't be surprised if muffins are to Babs what waffles were to Steph.

[shadowpsykie]

heh yeah i think so too.

[shadowpsykie]

don't forget Meatballs = Helena+Catman

and Eggs= hot gay sex with Catman and deadshot.... that might have been just me...

[salinea]

see motto.

[shadowpsykie]

i seriously just had a whole little scene play out in my head right now... it was quite... nice... my catman and deadshot are fuzzy chested the way Nicola drew them... there may have been cuddling in the end... Deadshot was snuggled up to catman's chest.... (we all know Deadshot is a pussycat :D

[moetushie]

I'm glad muffins + waffles are their go-to crimefighting comfort food, and not something ridiculous... Like an energy bar or something.

[darkknightjrk]

Well, Babs wasn't using as crimefighting comfort food, but rather "talking with my mother who up and abandoned me and my father years ago" comfort food.

[moetushie]

Yikes, I can see how that would call for something heavier.

[shadowpsykie]

is her Mother Barbara Gordon I? is she Bio Mom?

[darkknightjrk]

It sounds like they're condensing the Gordon family a bit--this mother here birthed Barbara, and it sounded like she left Jim...so...both, I guess?

[lieut_kettch]

What flour-based breakfast staple does Cass get? Pancakes? Toast?

[darkknightjrk]

Girl tends to live a spartan lifestyle, so I'd go with toast--either dry, or with peanut butter for extra protein.

[lieut_kettch]

And French toast when she's feeling fancy. And seeing as she's assigned to SE Asia, she may have discovered the joys of kaya toast as well.
