Batgirl #45 Brenden Fletcher, Cameron Stewart, Babs Tarr, Serge Lapointe DC, $2.99 Batgirl #45 is a comic with 0 super villain punching and 100% romance and relationship-based plots. That may sound less than ideal for […]

Batgirl #43 Cameron Stewart, Brenden Fletcher, Babs Tarr, Michel Lacombe, Serge Lapointe DC $2.99 Batgirl #43 is a frustrating comic (but at least that David LaFuente cover is rad). On the narrative end of this […]
