Batgirl #6

While there were some moments in this book I found a bit silly, all in all I actually liked this issue. Especially the scenes between Gretel and Barbara.

First, mum is back!

Barbara being all Oracle-like by doing her homework. That I like. Though I am starting to wonder if she still had her big iconic clock tower in this new DCU if she was only Oracle for three years.

And now, Batman and Batgirl team-up!

Not sure if I'm looking forward to revisiting the "The Joke," but I will nevertheless check it out to see if there's any mention of her as Oracle. I'm honestly still waiting on that confirmation. :(

1) Barbara loves her father, they had sweet talks, one time Barbara asked Jim how he managed to help the officers under his charge (without telling him that she was oracle).

Jim Gordon has been Batman's Bro since Year One (I heard that Miller based Hartigan on Gordon for his Sin City series). I like the nod that rich uncle Bruce paid for the hospital. But Bruce is not her dad.

2) A race to the top? Is this Bruce or Dick? Dont get me wrong, Bruce doesnt need to be all grim all the time, but those words kinda sound out character, just kinda.

3) I dont know where I begin and she ends? Am I reading a Fanfic? twilight? Is like a competition of who is more sexually ambiguous Barbara or poor Ol'Virgin Tim (Robin writers straight him up, Titans writers not so much ;) )
Pairings aside, that line was pathetic, Simone went lazy
