It’s a reasonably solid story by Fabian Nicieza and Kevin Maguire, but this book is LOADED with cheesecake art, which really isn’t the point of Batgirl. While chronologically these stories occur prior to Batgirl: Year One, I’d recommend most new readers start with the more modern take on Batgirl from the 90’s.īatgirl and Catwoman face off for a mysterious notebook. Some of Batgirl’s earliest comic book adventures from the late 60’s through the early 70’s. And as always, enjoy the comics!

Barbara, or Babs, has plenty of great Batgirl stories, both in classic Batman comics and in DC’s New 52 and Rebirth. Due to her Bat-family status, Batgirl can seem like an anachronistic also-ran to new DC readers, when the reality is Batgirl – in all of her various identities – is an essential cornerstone within the DC Universe.īatgirl’s most well-known identity is Barbara Gordon, the adopted daughter of Gotham Police commissioner Jim Gordon.
