"lol they should make Steph spoiler again she's basically not even a Batgirl" look I'm not too jazzed about the current state of Batgirl lore either rn but if I have to suffer through another decade of terrible babsgirl content PLEASE AT LEAST LET ME HAVE BATGIRL STEPH, IF ONLY IN NAME

#ramblings of a lunatic #dc comics #stephanie brown #ideally we'd have no babsgirls and Steph and Cass co-existing as two different types of batgirls both together and separate #since even beyond personality the types of heroes they were- how they fought what they fought their thinking their approach etc- #-was all very different from each other #and in calling back to their respective eras as Batgirl we'd get a steph who feels more like batgirl and less like n52 spoiler #but unfortunately dc hates me and insists on shoving babs into a role better occupied by steph and cass #leaving neither girl to really be able to flourish as batgirl #< this was inspired by me seeing ppl. not quite gloating. that's mean. but they were celebrating- #-about some steph concept art (NEW STUFF WITH STEPH WOO) being labeled ''batgirl/spoiler'' #like i don't think it's a reflection of story progression (bc it wouldn't be progression. it'd be regression. batgirl was forward for steph) #i think it's a reflection of the fact that editorial feels bullied and strong armed by fans into acknowledging steph (and cass) as batgirls #sips juice. anyway #i lowkey think it'd be cool to have steph and cass be batgirls in different cities. cass already had bludhaven let steph take a stab at it #if we're insistent on keeping babs in bludhaven then let her oracle for steph ala bg 2009 #it'd be neat! we could finally explore the tensions and parallels between dick and steph! #and you wouldn't have to remove steph from gotham either considering dicks there constantly too #you lose lich rally nothing and gain so much #but really I'm happy we get anything with steph considering she's only been getting cameos for nearly a year now #steph nation winning despite it all
