Steph has a...date? With an actual boy? Well, this calls for a celebration...or a trip to the zoo! The Batgirls and Steph's dreamy love interest are in for a day of monkey business, but all that monkeying around ends when they've got henchmen on their tails! Meanwhile, Babs is one step closer to tracking down the Hill Ripper-too bad all it took was yet another homicide.
The gradual development of ensemble conflict and setting makes Batgirls one of DCs better-balanced books. Conrad and Cloonan have found a compatible artist in Googe, who has a style so similar to the seriess original artist that the visual world of the series doesnt feel at all inconsistent across the first ten issues. It doesnt hurt that the seriess original artist (Jorge Corona) continues to do such a good job with the covers every month. Read Full Review
The second chapter of this storyline is fun and interesting. Not only do two of the Batgirls have cool romantic interactions, we are reintroduced to an old friend of Barbara's, as well as a surprising but familiar villain. Read Full Review
‘Batgirls' continues to capture a sort of old-school comic feeling mixed with a lot of modern sensibilities as it gives the main characters the spotlight that they truly deserve. A colorful, fun, emotional, silly, serious, and human feeling series that is a true delight to open up every single month. Anyone that is a fan of comic books should be picking this series up because it's pure comic book goodness. Read Full Review
The series may have taken a little longer than people had hoped, but it's still become one of the most consistently excellent books in DC's catalog. Read Full Review
Becky Cloonan and Michael W. Conrad have been amazing this whole time, keeping the reader on their toes with twists and turns. I can't wait till we get all the answers. OH, THE FEELINGS. Read Full Review
None of this stuff is bad, but it feels a little genericwhile Cass and Steph bring such electric energy to every single one of their scenes. They might be the only DC teen heroes who are actually allowed to feel like teens at the moment, and that helps this book stand out from the crowd. It should stick to its strengths. Read Full Review
This arc so far is working much better for me than some of the other ones. It's focused, and feels well balanced between characters and mystery. The art fits well with the story, and helps add to the feeling that this is something the teenage version of myself would have enjoyed very much. Overall, I think the series is successfully telling a fun, engaging story this time around. Read Full Review
Follow @ComicalOpinions on Facebook, Instagram, and TwitterBits and Pieces:Batgirls #10 amps up the middle school YA shenanigans and turns down the dramatic tension in the Batgirls' search for a killer. The art is fine, and the plot makes a mild amount of progress, but the corny, childish dialog may be off-putting for some, and the leisurely pace prevents creating any excitement or anticipation.

The games don't end, and it's now apparent to the three best friends that Killer Moth is one of their primary suspects in this new string of events, but the identity of the second mysterious person is yet to be revealed. The ride is just getting started! Read Full Review
Batgirls #10 is the point in this series that I just must tap out. While I'm a big fan of Barbara Gordon, Cassandra Cain, and Stephanie Brown I've come to terms that this series is just not for me. For those enjoying this series I am happy for you and I'm okay with Batgirls #10 being the final issue I read of Cloonan and Conrad's run. Read Full Review
A perfectly pleasant little downtime issue. Steph and Cass's day at the library is charming, and I'm delighted to see someone remember that Alysia exists and is nominally Babs' best non-superhero friend. The anti-vigilante rant from Montoya would probably work better in the mouth of someone who isn't literally The Question, but taken on its own merits its fine. Neil Googe does some solid work, though in places he seems to be trying to match Corona's style, and while I appreciate the idea of trying to give this book artistic consistency it doesn't really work
This title seems like it has so many directions it wants to go in, but is unwilling to settle on which. It's slightly fun, at least.
