Reading the New 52: Issue #1: Batgirl
by Gail Simone, Adrian Syaf and Vicente Cifuentes
Cover: While Batman is of course familiar to me, I had no idea there was a whole Bat family. Bat colony. Batgirl appears to be a feisty redhead, cute but no Escher Girl. So far, so good.
Story: So Batgirl is named Barbara Gordon. She talks to herself a lot. She beats up bad guys. She was paralyzed for three years. And then... she got better?
Ouch. I guess I see why people were so incensed by this change. I don't know enough about the backstory to get into it.
There's a bad guy named The Mirror murdering people and Batgirl is going to tangle with him.
Drop or keep: Keep.
