Because she’s Barbara-Freaking-Gordon! The God Damn Batgirl and The Mistress Oracle

A lot of writers hated it, but I loved writing Oracle so much I can’t even stand it.

You see? THIS is what Orcale can do. Make somebody run just by telling them what she can know. No outright physical threats, just that she can *find* him. Anywhere. Sooner or later, she *will* find him.

Batgirl swings around in spandex beating up muggers that the ‘Real’ bat-family are too busy to deal with.

Yeah, I know she does more than that, but come on, anyone who thinks becoming Batgirl again is anything but a downgrade is, I think, deluding themselves. Or DC’s Editorial Department. 

Um.

You know I did write this scene in this post, right? I know what Oracle can do.

And the ‘downgrade’ thing, well, that’s a way of looking at it. Batman: Year One could be a downgrade, as well, I guess.
