I was not expecting to enjoy this as much as I did. I mainly picked it up out of loyalty to Gail Simone. Gail Simone has also been synonymous with Batgirl, but after the New 52, the rumor is that she butted heads with DC, not enjoying the changes they were forcing onto Batgirl, so she quit.

Kushiel’s Dart May Strike True, But It Takes a Damn Long Time to Get There

In retrospect I probably should have started with a series that has already ended, so I have some sort of goal line on the horizon, but, you know, hindsight and all. So I yoked myself to a current series and the burden […]
