Look Who's Back, Back Again (in a book based five years in the future and technically isn't canon)!

One panel from today's Batgirl: Future's End issue. More later, but this conformation made me cheer.


Haven't gotten confirmation for the other two Batgirls yet, though I'm pretty certain that they're Steph and Nell Little from Steph's solo series. Woot!

We may not be able to have nice things full time, but it IS nice to have them, even for a short period of time, in the hopes that SOMEONE gets the hint and brings them back properly!

Hah, good contrast, StephBG had the funnest weapons of any bat ^^

[rainspirit]

Oooh, heads are gonna roll for that one.

[arilou_skiff]

"That's what she said!"

[jaxjyls]

It's confirmed Steph and Cass, the other Batgirl is called Tiffany

[icon_uk]

And though they are not mentioned in the title, Gail confirms their surnames are Brown, Cain and Fox respectively... Tiffany is Tamara's little sister I believe.

It's finally happening: Batgirl Incorporated.

Okay, now someone do Robin, Inc. and Nightwing, Inc.

"Good Morning, Batgirls."
"Good Morning, Dick!"

[zapbiffpow]

Weeew-we-weeew....wewewe-we-we-weeeew...

That, uh, that was the Charlie's Angels theme song. I'm sorry, I couldn't embed audio, heh. The idea was awesome, though!

[drtechnobabel]

You could just do what I do and link to a YouTube video of it.

[drtechnobabel]

While I could see Robin, Inc. working out, I can't help but imagine Nightwing, Inc. consisting solely of Dick sitting at a table by himself, doodling plans for a super secret HQ and muttering angrily at the fact that no one invited him to their clubs and how he'll make his Nightwing, Inc. better than everyone else's Incorporateds.

[zapbiffpow]

BWAHAHAHA! Wait, I'm gonna do a Bender meme for this! Hang on, be right back!

[icon_uk]

Been there, done that... sort of

[zapbiffpow]

That is quite possibly the greatest literary achievement in the history of Robindom. It's like the Forever Red of sidekickism.

[shadowpsykie]

Yeah, the other one is Stephanie (it's said on Panel) and the third girl is called Tiffany (and she's 12)

[kurenai_tenka]

:D :D :D

[tianyulong]

yes yes yes yes yes so much yes

[jaybee3]

I want to say yay.....but books based on DC's "future" tend to not turn out well - dystopian mess, retconned out of reality (thank you Barry Allen) or DC decides they just never happened (hey remember that One Year Later jump?). I guess when it comes to Ms. Cain and DC, I've been burned too many times.

I'm reminded a bit of the Titans Tomorrow storyline.

A future Cassandra showed up on the titans tomorrow team, then nada, never showed up on Titans again.

It's a little nod from a specific writer, that's all.

[mrstatham]

My problem is that this means just about as little as teaming up Helena, Dinah and Barbara toward the end of Simone's actual run on Batgirl. It means nothing. Those characters don't have the same background, they aren't the same people, it was just something Simone thought people wanted to see. This is equally meaningless because it's in a single issue and has entirely no context because it'll never get revisited, and it isn't even the main plot of the issue. It just smacks of Simone going 'look who *I* brought back!' the month before she's off the book entirely.

Ah, Steph, may your love of Gooperangs never fade...

[zechs80]

Oh god yes!
