The people of the Hill have had enough of Gunbunny and Gunhawk's demands and take to the streets to march in solidarity with the Batgirls. Moved by this, the Batgirls join in, proving to both the city and the snipers that Gothamites should not be underestimated--and that we can overcome even the darkest of times if we have each other. Come join the Batgirls in the march to celebrate them in this last issue of the beloved series!

This will be a series I will keep coming back to, as there are such wonderful feel good moments mixed in with the awesome butt-kicking battle sequences.

The final issue of Batgirls ties up all the loose ends neatly. A poignant and reflective ending serves as a perfect reminder of why these characters belong together and why this creative team were the ones to tell their story. Read Full Review
Ideally, a series thats been as good as Batgirls doesnt have to end. If it DOES have to end, though, it really SHOULD end with an issue like Batgirls #19. The final chapter in the series pays homage to the characters and their struggles while providing a satisfying conclusion to central conflicts and holding open the possibility of more at some point in the future. Its all quite meticulously placed on the page while embracing everything that makes the Batgirls such a fun trio to hang out with every month. Read Full Review

All things must end, and ‘Batgirls' goes out the way it always lived: wearing its proverbial heart on its sleeve at all times. A powerfully deep and emotional series that never skimped on the fun, wrapped up in a colorful stylized beautiful package month after month. These are the types of series that we need far more of from comic book publishers. Read Full Review
There are so many great players here, like Alysia Yeoh and Grace O'Halloran, that I'm hoping find their way back to the comics soon. And most of all, I'm hoping these two continue getting the spotlight they deserve. Cass seems to be covered with Birds of Prey, thankfully, but I'll keep wanting a book continuing this dynamic.

This farewell may have been lacking in its Cass and Babs time, but, like every issue of Batgirls, it doesn't lack in heart. "Once a Batgirl, always a Batgirl." Read Full Review
Batgirls #19 wraps things up in a pleasant way that doesn't dictate the future of any of the characters involved, allowing the series to stand on its own as a complete story. Read Full Review
Becky Cloonan and Michael W. Conrad bring their 19 issue run on Batgirls to a close in their trademark melancholic but humorous style, highlighting the bond between the three Batgirls as well as their skills in saving others, both fighting and in how they connect to those around them. Read Full Review
Honestly, this is the kind of Batgirls series that fans have wanted for a while and I think it delivered in spades. Read Full Review
Batgirls #19 ends the arc, the creative team's tenure, and the title with a final confrontation to stop a mad sniper from terrorizing the city. The resolution is serviceable, the killer's mysterious identity was telegraphed early on (although, the identity has a twist), and the art is passable with terrible colors. Read Full Review
As the finale to Batgirls this issue does a good job wrapping up the final plot and referencing back to the beginning of the story, both in its characters and in how the Batgirls have developed over the course of the run. While the run has had its share of problems I am happy that the Batgirls got the chance to adventure together, and I hope that they get the chance again in the future. Read Full Review
Batgirls was a series that had its ups and downs. I feel like there's a lot that could be said about this series' tone. It really wanted to feel fun, and fresh, and hip and that was fine until they tried to invoke more serious emotions, which ended up falling flat. I can't know the behind the scenes of this comic, or how it came to be, but I do think it falls victim to a rather sexist mandate of sorts that I feel DC often employs for their female-focused comics. There's almost an insistence that these comics have to be light reading; more focused on fun and simple storytelling versus complex characterizations and plot. This sort of editorial insistence was also why dreadful Batgirl runs of the past like the Burnside era happened. This comic more
this is honestly a review for the entire series, and while there are some moments that are super entertaining, there are other moments where the story dips down and gets boring. But this series ends on a satisfying note, and I would reccomend this to readers.
Bad series. Characterization of Cassandra was way off and the coloring was a constant problem. If you want to read Cloonrad try their XO Manowar title. It's not great but it is way better that this. Batgirls was a great concept that just fell flat.
