March cover and solicit for Batgirl

Ugh, screw this. Seven issues in and we’ll still be mired in a Killing Joke retrospective? I couldn’t possibly think of a more misguided direction for this series. Of course, I’ve obsessed over this previously.

… Also: “Grotesque”? Barf.

Via dcwomenkickingass:

Adam Hughes’ cover magic is sorely missed. Guess this is the big “reveal” issue on how Batgirl is now walking.

BATGIRL #7

One dark, tragic night, The Joker shattered the life of Barbara Gordon in the landmark story BATMAN: THE KILLING JOKE. In this issue, see a side of that story that has never before been told, as BATGIRL faces the demons of her past! And if that’s not enough, a deadly new gentleman killer, Grotesque, stalks the streets of Gotham City!
