I found this scene from Batgirl #32 rather amusing. A svelte woman in stealth tactical gear trying to get the drop on another twentysomething in spandex capris and running shoes in broad daylight. Yep. Nothing suspicious going on here.

I wish there was more hand-to-hand fighting like this in comics … where it’s clear the artist has definitely researched a technique or two.

That’s Fernando Pasarin, the guy is amazing. I know he’s got some martial arts because it shows up in the book’s unique posing, but I don’t know what the extent of it is. I will ask!
