With vastly different power bases, to have a threat to both of them is tricky.<br /><br />But to be honest, it is the interaction of the characters that I enjoy, usually very different outlooks on life. <br /><br />It doesn't sound Steph-like at the end. But as I said, both SG and BG have dark places that might boil to the surface now and then.<br /><br />But, as we saw in World's Finest #3, Batgirl #14, and Batgirl #23 ... these two versions of the characters just clicked. And I am sad we won't see them again.Anjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10023193805914075078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-90131170282601616522011-08-24T22:27:51.691-04:002011-08-24T22:27:51.691-04:00I read the World's Finest web comic, I agree w...I read the World's Finest web comic, I agree with Anj, the story is very good. <br /><br />From what I have seen and read many writers/artists are directly or indirectly taking their own jabs about the upcoming DCnU in their last DCU stories.valerie21601http://www.fanfiction.net/~valerie21601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-34806502670171980302011-08-24T21:51:06.473-04:002011-08-24T21:51:06.473-04:00Well, I'll play the happy-go-lucky Piglet role...Well, I'll play the happy-go-lucky Piglet role here and say I liked it! Of course that's easy for me to say, I like Kara/Steph team-ups just because.<br /><br />That was Steph, wasn't it? It's her Batgirl costume, but she was rather grim and downbeat for Steph, particularly at the end with the "No such thing as a happy ending" comment. That was almost 180 degrees from her usual personality and how her title ended this month. But she still gets a hug from Kara! Cheer up Steph, maybe you're hanging around Damian too much.Gearnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-3071970401608906672011-08-24T12:44:30.338-04:002011-08-24T12:44:30.338-04:00How little does Didio care about alienating curren...How little does Didio care about alienating current comic book fan base?<br /><br />IN Didio's own words, he's already lost us.<br /><br />“The truth is people are leaving anyway, they’re just doing it quietly, and we have been papering it over with increased prices,” DiDio said. “We didn’t want to wake up one day and find we had a bunch of $20 books that 10,000 people are buying.”<br /><br />Here is the direct link to the article.<br /><br />http://herocomplex.latimes.com/2011/08/22/dc-comics-exclusive-covers-batman-superman-revamped-heroes-and-digital-will-save-the-day/#/0valerie21601http://www.fanfiction.net/~valerie21601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-28989336975588620892011-08-24T09:28:05.404-04:002011-08-24T09:28:05.404-04:00I'd like to see them together where Supergirl&...I'd like to see them together where Supergirl's obvious giant advantage in power level actually shows up and she actually saves Batgirl.<br /><br />They did.

Once again, Supergirl gets smacked around by the robot-- let's face it, she didn't land a punch, got beat around pretty good and just before Batgirl, as always, saves the day, the robot appears to be standing over a defeated Supergirl ready to finish the job.<br /><br />Somehow, the human Batgirl's batarangs and kicks are effective and she can dodge every shot, but Supergirl, with all of her powers, gets clobbered and can't do any damage. The "smarter" Batgirl has the plan and saves the day. Supergirl is just there as the punching bag to make the bad guys look tougher and Batgirl look better. <br /><br />It is the same formula every time-- both in the animated show and in the comics. Batgirl dodges everything and does all the effective fighting. Supergirl just gets beaten up. I'd like to see them together where Supergirl's obvious giant advantage in power level actually shows up and she actually saves Batgirl.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
