But Why Tho? - William Tucker
Sep 02, 2026Batgirl Issue 23 shows how the communities are getting crushed by the crossover. It’s one thing to see regular heroes fighting against villains. It’s entirely different to see regular people just fighting to stay alive. Read Full Review

You Don't Read Comics - Russ Bickerstaff
Sep 02, 2026It's a bit early to tell, however, this Bad Seeds crossover event appears to be one of the better integrated in articulated crossover events in recent history. Everything seems to be mapped out and blown out with a great degree of style and integration and articulation. Very impressive stuff. Of course, there's still a lot of crossover yet to be done as the story enters a crucial point in the second week. Time will tell. Read Full Review

Comic Watch - Theron Couch
Sep 02, 2026Batgirl #23 provides both a breath of fresh air for the series–a much needed respite from its recent, more complicated stories–and an effective opening to the series’ Bad Seeds tie-in issues. The issue offers a comparatively lower stakes story which is a good thing to have in a big crossover, and it’s an easy entry point into the series for new readers. Read Full Review

The Batman Universe - D.M. Grant
Sep 08, 2026This is a Batman crossover arc that Batgirl is entangled into, and it feels like the best kind of tie-in issue. Read Full Review

Actual plot progress for the narrative- vs the big load of nothing in the Batman part, as pretty as it was.
