Snyder is great at building up the story, horrible at conclusions. Had to re-read because I thought I missed the end of Mr. Bloom. I was let down to say the very least.

Tarr has destroyed the work of other creators because she doesn't like their work. Her tween salior
moon knockoff has taken the character from an inspirational survivor to the poster child of
censorship in comics.

Everything I hate about Disney owning Marvel all in one issue. Spencer was a horrible choice
for this book, considering what a monetary asset the Captain American market has become.

Nice first issue, loved the price. Really loved there wasn't 20 variant covers for the book.

Too early to know what is going on, solid art and writing. The Jim Lee variant cover is a must
own. Will pick up again to see where this is heading.

Stewart and Tarr have destroyed everything that Batgirl represents. She went from a survivor
and role model, to a tween knockoff of Sailor Moon. The book uses LGBT issues the way
chromium covers were used in the early 1990s, as a gimmick. The creators seem not to care for
either what Batgirl represents or her long term fans. #savebatgirl. Critics who gave this
book a good score are like the critics for the Oscars, out of touch. more

What the hell was that? I'm sorry but despite the transgender significance, this book falls flat on its face as most of these characters are shifted for clear attention grabbing headlines like the interracial relationship with Fox and the transgender lure. There isn't any plot or character growth in these pages as it shifts in a weird chase between Barbra and Dick until the wedding ceremony starts. more

Why did they write Dick as such a DICK? I mean this was really just the worst possible timing in the history of bad timing. Even reading the solicit 3 months ago, while as excited as I was about the possibility of him getting back into the book somehow, I really didn't like the whole "and he's got a lot to say about their future together." While he really didn't have much else to say that wasn't already said exactly as in Grayson 12. They did completely nail how Babs should react in this situation. But I really don't understand how he would even approach her at all if she was doing something as important to as planning a wedding. Like hey Babs is really dressed up nice and planning a wedding MAYBE I should come back some other time. It's not like B&R Eternal isn't in Gotham. He just comes off as such a selfish asshole- which isn't him. On top of that it just seems like Luke Fox was just used as a plot device just to make it that much easier to totally shut down this relationship for a while. I don't discount Luke as a good match or anything but damn when did Batgirl and him ever interact before 2 issues ago? But despite portraying Dick at his absolute worst, I would like to give the book the benefit of the doubt if we actually could see some kind of change in Dick's persona if he ever appears in this book anytime soon or you know a Spyral trick that will really hit him where it hurts. In Grayson you see a version of Dick that is pretty cocky and confident and this issue was that version amplified. I wasn't at all disappointed with the story itself just Dick being in it.

Didn't Dick learn his lesson (or the writers) in Nightwing annual 1?????? Hello???? "Doesn't work if you force it" oh yeah totally forgot.

All of this terrible Dick Grayson appearance totally overshadows what is most important and that was this wedding. Everything that didn't have the triangle romance plot line was fine. It was just a total trainwreck from what just happened in Grayson 12. more
