Sorry about the confusion! I meant SS, Suicide Squad, it was a typo. I've been operating under the assumption that it was an offpanel death, because of the way this SS run seems to regard characters as disposable, that bloody knife, the fact that the writi
I have only read issue one of Suicide Squad. Is the Mad Dog you are talking about the same one from the old mini-series? And I have been told very clearly, we never saw Savant's body. So I think it's a feint.

Batgirl Casting Call
I never do this, but…
Who would you choose to play the following characters?
CASSANDRA CAIN
STEPHANIE BROWN
BARBARA GORDON (as Oracle)
BARBARA GORDON (as the current Batgirl, age 21)
I don't really keep up with actors, but I'm curious who you guys would pick!

Ragdoll by Paul Geronimos
One sick & twisted twisty guy, that Mr. Merkel.
My concern is that he probably eventually found out!
That's a really nice piece of art…love all the recent S6 art!

That's gorgeous.
I am all for practical costumes and all of that, but you'll never convince me that Canary needs to lose the fishnets to be tough. I'm glad her new costume at least suggests them…she's had some of the worst costumes ever in the past!
I love this costume, though I don't have much against the new one to be honest though.
The new one is growing on me, I just always feel the fishnets are her visual signature and when she doesn't have them, it always takes a split-second longer to identify her.
She's still one of my favorite characters ever. I'm hoping for great things from Birds of Prey.

Ladies and gentlemen, please feel free to throw logic out the window when you're plotting a comic book. Especially if it doesn't suit the plot. For instance, last issue we…
Hmmm. Well, I'm sorry you didn't like it, but you missed some stuff, apparently. It's not that complicated. First, not sure from your paragraph, but Mirror IS the man who was "supposed" to die in the fire, a former federal agent whose family car was sabotaged by the cartel he was investigating.
As for the trains, the diabetic man collapsed ON the train tracks, as it says last issue, and was rescued, pulled off the tracks by the good Samaritan, both would have died in a train collision, which means both names were on Mirror's list, and it being a high profile case, Mirror had news reports of that story, he even showed it to Batgirl last issue. They have to die in a method similar to how they cheated death, death in a train accident satisfies his M.O., in the same manner that a "2" aspect has to be in a Two-Face crime.
Batgirl was on his list for surviving the Brisby Murderer, who pushed her out a window thirty stories up in the rain, where she was only saved because the intended victims were there to help pull her up, which also made the news. To satisfy his list, she has to die from a fall from a building.
Not sure what it is that's not in pace with his repeatedly stated M.O…
Sorry you didn't care for it, however!

I put up a lot of original work...
I put up a lot of original work in my Etsy Store!! Check it out!

A very pretty Babs as Batgirl piece.
Just wow, love the watercolor wash effect.
Btw, loved The Mirror's backstory in Batgirl #2. Are we going to see more of Mel McKenna, though? She's a pretty interesting character that's holding a grudge against Batgirl, right now. Are Mel and Alysia going to meet? I feel like Mel's similar to Renee
Yep, Melody has a big role in the coming issues, she's going to be something unique, I promise. And her sexuality will be made clear as well!
